One of a council of judges has said it, and the remaining council have to agree to make this an actual ruling. Further this is only for ITC, which deals with international trade, not actual patent law. All this means is that Apple may be allowed to continue to export it's products. It does not hold any weight in the way of actual patent infringement or how local courts will rule.

All in all, it's a "good thing" for Apple, but it's far from a declaration or decision of merit as to if Apple actually infringed or not. You may want to change the title to something a little more appropriate, say "Judge sides with Apple in ITC case"
