Missed It: L’Asso Employees Strike?

I can't find this anywhere else and I'd take any report from ActuaBD.com about the French publisher L'Association with a grain of salt considering what I recall as some past hostility between principals at the news clearinghouse site and at the publisher, but I think they're saying
here that L'Association's small group of employees briefly took over the office Monday in protest of coming personnel reductions...? It doesn't sound to me like a big deal -- I know there's a tendency to see any news of this kind as a "gotcha!" and I don't intend that at all -- but it's sort of an interesting one if true and the employees making a collective statement like that, expressing a desire to work on a solution and for more transparency in the process, would exist in stark contrast to the kind of personnel reduction you tend to see in the U.S. I'm also sorry to have not paid more attention to the revolutionary, influential publisher's 20th anniversary.
This is the kind of article that almost always gets an immediate update, by the way, so you might check back.
