Lisa, My response was originally to Ryan regarding his initial response per my posting. However, I can take your word for it that the FOIA response since sept 2001 has been less than stellar. Still, on an issue that affects even "free and open software" for governments to take something thats supposed to be publically debated and accessible and make it "a metter of national security" makes me wonder what they are really up to. Clearly, the current administration is showing an aptitude for these kinds of secrecy games not seen since the height of the cold war. There is something very wrong in the halls of power and it directly affects us all in one form or another. Lisa Kachold wrote: > Right, I believe I got the typical response sometime after 2001.
