Sourceforge.net is now unblocked by the G.F.W of China, and netizens from the mainland can now visit this largest repository of Opensource with little hassle. The site of Notepad++ is also left untouched by the seemingly impenetrable “Wall”, and its almost blasphemous attitude toward the Holy Olympic Games is visible to the people from the Mainland China. However, the original picture of five interlaced handcuffs on the site of Notepad++ is gone.
The fate of these recently unblocked sites (such as Wikipedia.org, Sourceforge.net etc.), are uncertain after the ending of the Olympic Games and the departure of most foreign Game visitors. Meanwhile, netizens on this site of the “Wall” can at least ease their use of VPN or other tricks to peek beyond the Wall.
