Re: Your old articles

Hi Dr. Stallman,

sorry for the late response.

I'm CCing this message to the Israeli "Hackers-IL" mailing list where there 
are many like-minded free software enthusiasts. I hope it's OK, as I don't see 
why this message should not be made public.

Well, I may have misunderstood your article and I apologise for that. I'll try 
to reread it again and get more to the bottom of it. That put aside, I'm going 
to make the new version of the story live after I finish writing this scene:

v2/fine_cat.html

( short URL - http://xrl.us/bjmcdz ).

There are several improvements in this new version, and it naturally includes 
the changes to Jennifer's thought dialogue. So thanks again.

On a different note: if humanly possible, I'd like to conduct an online 
interview with you regarding several questions I have in mind (including a . I 
will publish it here:

http://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/interviews/

The text of the interview (questions and answers) can be made a dual GFDL, as 
well as CC-by or CC-by-sa licence. If possible, I'd prefer to conduct the 
initial interview on your choice of Internet-based Instant Messaging protocol, 
and later on I'll convert it to XML-Grammar-Screenplay's Screenplay-Text (my 
own custom, but libre, format with a free software implementation on CPAN.),  
and afterwards, we and others can both edit it for correctness and coherency. 

One can find all my instant messaging account information (including the free-
as-in-freedom specifications of IRC and Jabber/XMPP) here:

http://www.shlomifish.org/me/contact-me/

You can easily set up a throwaway Jabber account and contact me on my Jabber 
accounts: ShlomiFish-/[email protected] and/or [email protected] , and I believe 
Jabber supports some form of end-to-end encryption (in case it matters for 
such a thing).

Regards,

	Shlomi Fish
