I do not expect any policy decisions arrived at here to take precedence
over the law.  But I kinda expect that it would take a court order (or
similar notice) for the admins at lug.org.uk to act in that way.  Or are
you saying that you'll modify records if a friend who has a cousin who
knows some one that is and ex-policeman is all it will take?  :-)

Good advice.  But I would thought that you need those servers in other
legal jurisdictions so one judge or magistrate can't issue one notices
to all servers.

That is the whole point of this thread.  What ever policy is determined
here will be posted to the website and added to the welcome message
issued by mailman.
