Hi,

I hope this not going against protocol but I'm sure most of you are aware of
web developer facing execution in Iran.

On the cbc this morning there was an interview with his wife and its tragic;
also its sounds like the govt is doing little or nothing about it (from what
it sounded just spin)

The facebook page

There are only 1200 people liking it.  There should be 10 to the power 6 at
least.

I feel it's a responsibility of all programmers to protest since maybe one
day it could be you if you visit a country like Iran.
