Greetings.  Following up quickly to "In Stunning Surprise, 
French Reject Oppressive Internet Law!"  
( http://lauren.vortex.com/archive/000540.html ) -- 
word is already out that the bill will be resubmitted to the 
legislature as soon as possible, for further votes when 
a higher percentage of the legislators are present.

One way or another, these efforts will drive the rapid adoption of
encryption/VPN technologies for file sharing and most other Internet
applications -- a positive development even if it comes about through
such unfortunate legislative measures.
