This is a sort of follow-up to my previous post announcing the
conviction of Randal Schwartz for "computer crimes" related to his
security "probing" [my term] at Intel.
This is here strictly as an FYI on the case, now that the sentencing
hearing has taken place. It is not really Linux-related, but rather
shows, in some ways, how the "public" and corporations view and treat
computer security issues in general.
Please direct any follow-ups to the fors-discuss@teleport.com
mailing-list that is being run on a Majordomo server at that host.

After a very grueling few hours, I am once again jacked in.
Here's the results:
Count 1, reduced to a misdemeanor, 5 years probation, 90 days jail to
begin september 1, *1998*. However, 60 days before this date I can
petition the court to demonstrate excellent behavior and
rehabilitation, and they may dismiss the jailtime. Disclosure
required (see below).
Count 2, 2 years probation, 480 hours of community service, disclosure
required (see below).
Count 3, 2 years probation, 480 hours of community service (hours
count for both counts 2 and 3, so it's 480 total, not 960).
Disclosure required (see below).
Restitution hearing still to be set. Intel is asking for an additional
$9000 over the original $63000.
Disclosure: I must not become either a contract employee or employee
without my potential employer becoming fully aware of my conviction.
I attend my "probation induction" meeting next week.
Please do not ask me about any appeal plans at this point.
