Slim and others are free. I can't tell if all prisoners of the last days are. I don't know how well they are, but Slim404 did a quick pick-a-boo on the net to confirm he was alive.

Ben Ali is about to arrive in France (SHAME)(now it's really the latest news, still to be confirmed, there's reports he'd be persona non grata here), the prime minister is assuring the interim (unconstitutional). Part of Ben Ali's family are reported to have been arrested.

The army assures the security and safety, but there's incidents (pillages) reported in some places. The general, HHQ, who refused to participate to Ben Ali's race to violence is still resigned since yesterday.

There's demos in Paris of happy Tunisians :o)
