Only then will there beany enforcement possibilities, with the associated legal challenges, etc. I would be very much suprised if this passed tommorrow if it wasn't 5-7 yearsbefore any sanctions could possibly be felt.Even in the worst case scenario, this stupidity will only drive server hosting and corporate registration out of the EU faster. Sure, lobby now in opposition, but don't lose a lot of sleep over it.John-- John PeacockDirector of Information Research and TechnologyRowman & Littlefield Publishing Group4720 Boston WayLanham, MD 20706301-459-3366 x.5010fax 301-429-5747-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
