These are cultural differences, definitely not lies - in Australia, it is often possible to camp for free. I wouldn't make that assumption in Switzerland. However, I've lived in Switzerland for 2 years, someone from another country doesn't have that insight. The problem is, small misunderstandings like this can snowball Just look at that space mission where the Americans used imperial units and the European scientists used metric units _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
