Hi... seems that (according to some off list) mail Finland might be
tightening up its rules as well as the EU at large. I think the whole
legal side needs to be examined as obviously the broader audience as
possible amongst collectors who can contribute material is desirable,
but if one takes a risk just because a U.S. user can get the material
and thus bring the house of cards down if someone wanted to prove a
point. Are the laws any clearer in Canada :)
