I just got back from the EFF meeting in Atlanta, and following
the brief summaries by Jon and Dave, here's my take:

All in all, very positive.  EFF was fragmented in its approach
and now seems much more focused.  However, it was much less
fragmented than I, at least, had thought, and has actually been
carrying on some very effective lobbying in Washington.  (This is
where most of the dangers to cyberspace come from and where our
battles are going to have to be fought.)

The problem has largely been one of communications with the
membership.  EFF has been slaying dragons and keeping  quiet
about it.  They've also been remiss in pointing out the other
dragons lurking inside the Beltway.

I think this situation is about to change, and that we're going
to be hearing considerably more about what EFF is doing, and why.

No one--including me--is going to agree with every position EFF
takes, but I think we're all going to feel a lot better about
working with them and that, as time goes on, we're going to be
awfully glad they're out there.
