It is after christmas as well. The european copyright directive explicitly states it doesnt override the provisions of the reverse engineering rules except when you are dealing with DRM (in which case it simultaneously states that you can and you can't) and other bits of UK law make it simultaneously and conflictingly illegal to use many forms of DRM (disabled rights laws) Welcome to Europe. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: See the NEW Palm Tungsten T handheld.
