Claes Borgstrom of the Stockholm law firm Borgstrom and Bostrom, who is representing two women who said they had sexual relationships with Assange, said his clients complained to the police of Assange's reluctance to use condoms and unwillingness to be tested for sexually transmitted disease."
Link back from August.
And now most recent:
" Apparently having consensual sex in Sweden without a condom is punishable by a term of imprisonment of a minimum of two years for rape. That is the basis for a reinstitution of rape charges against WikiLeaks figurehead Julian Assange that is destined to make Sweden and its justice system the laughing stock of the world and dramatically damage its reputation as a model of modernity."
If true, I think it leaves little doubt that Assange should not turn himself in.

The best TL;DR summary I've seen is:
Julian Assange's rape charge boils down to a broken condom. His accuser wrote a treatise on how to take revenge against men, and after her "rape" she was seen with him at a seminar and later shared lunch.
