-Caveat Lector- The STOA documents are a work-in-progress; funded under contract to the European Parliament. Stuff is regularly updated, and it shouldn't suprise you if it is moved, updated, changed, etc. Just try tracking down a controversial item in the Federal Register or the U.S. Information Agency !!
