That law just changed, or so the news blubs indicated. The bust (same week as the changes I read about) http://news.webindia123.com/news/showdetails.asp?id=160798&cat=India UPI reports that india changed stuff in their laws now http://www.physorg.com/news8123.html I didnt read the article in full before (and didnt read *that* article specifically). Its legal for outside india, if you want to call inside india you have to use the regular telco stuff, but with the entry fees being lowered that monopoly may be challenged. For the most part it was quasi-legal, on the books as illegal but rarely enforced, although for the one call shop it seems that it did get enforced there ... -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group
