Oh I'm behind on that.  He was arrested one year ago, correct?  So far he's
served one year in jail -- and in the event he is sentenced to jail time, I
imagine that one year will be counted toward his sentence (as it was for
Chelsea Manning).

Am I understanding that you feel it is an outrage to hold Assange in UK
jail to await a trial that has been actively delayed *at his own request*
by appealing extradition?  The only reason he hasn't been tried in court
faster than this is due to his extraordinary (and clearly illegal) efforts
to avoid being tried.  How is that the court's fault or responsibility?
