Fred, I agree with your comments - but look: this is Austria -- and the clocks tick a bit slower. I think it may be a bit of "political" problem; they are worried that inexact or misleading information might be published "somewhere", etc., etc. . . . and I suspect that the responsible persons are overwhelmed with the speed of developments on the web and don't know what to do about it (this is an "Amt" -- and decisions take a while). They are certainly not fast movers. I was assured that they were planning something themselves but I'm pretty sure that there's nothing in the pipeline yet. Anyway, the /krainf-e.htm is great; it's just that my name should be scratched (I go there quite often and I don't want to become a persona non grata).
