It's funny that just two days ago, the largest Polish newspaper "Gazeta Wyborcza" has announced that Wikipedia is unblocked in China:
http://gospodarka.gazeta.pl/gospodarka/1,33181,3739338.html
and they have written that it is good example that "hard-talks" w China goverment may give good results....
Sigh.
Yes it's stories like that and from Reporters Sans Frontiers that can be frustrating - gloating that you can press China to change if you push hard enough is not exactly a friendly tactic. In fact, it may be counterproductive.
The "nouveau libre" like the "nouveau riche" tend to neglect the study of history. In a Chinese context they could keep up to date by reading the "Shujing".
