I was not using this as an example because I know that is what is motivating you, and I wanted to use absurdity for my demonstration. > Clearly stating that (a) it is not and (b) the conference organisers > will not tolerate it, will probably help a lot. But couldn't be too "light"? Maybe putting a hand of someone breast can be worth the risk being kicked out the event? Even more if I do not risk anything by the country law. That's why I don't like the idea to substitute to local laws. My proposal would be rather to write a set of rules that each country has to pass to be eligible to host an event. That would have more sense IMHO, and will be probably more effective. > Again, this is a bizarre idea.

I even think it would rather be the opposite. :) -- Julien Danjou // ᐰ <jul...@danjou.info> http://julien.danjou.info _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list Spi-general@lists.spi-inc.org http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
