Andrew Lih, a Chinese-American researcher who has worked at Columbia University and Hong Kong University, said in his blog this week that Beijing authorities began opening up access October 10. Lih said the English language version of Wikipedia was "widely accessible" while the Chinese version had "spotty access." -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frederick Noronha http://fn.goa-india.org 9822122436 +91-832-240-9490 http://fredericknoronha.wordpress.com http://www.flickr.com/photos/fn-goa/ Free Software gives you the freedom to run, study, copy and improve software!
