I haven't read the article but the order of courts are
Federal court in some circuit
Federal Appeals court in same circuit (3 judge panel)
Federal Appeals count in same circuit (9 judge panel)
Supreme Court
> Ref: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/04/04/1948229
>
> Apparently, today, the 6th circuit federal court has ruled that source
> code (crypto-source included, since that's the actual issue) is free
> speech and therefore protected by the First Ammendment.
>
> Two things I wonder about:
>
> 1) Is there anything above Federal or Supreme court, or have this
> lawsuit (that's what I understand is the legal term for this
> action) finally reached the end.
>
> 2) Where does that leave OpenSSL regarding getting US-originated
> source?
>
>
> If I understand correctly, if this ruling is hammered through (no pun
> intended), we can gladly say bye-bye to any regulation as long as we
> deal with source code and point at the First Ammendment instead...
>
> Comments?
