David and All, I think this is something that should be very carefully discussed, if it is discussed at all. The issue of Kosovo is a very sensitive one politically. Kosovo is an extremely important area to serbians, primarily due to its religious history and signfiicance. I don't think I can understate the significance it has to Serbia. On the other hand, you have a population in Kosovo which is something like 80% or more non-serbian, a result of years of people being shuffled around in that part of the world. I pass this on simply because I think it is important to have at least some idea of the depth of the controversy before we go clamoring for DXCC purposes. We should let things work themselves out politically (which I am not sure has occurred, since such a large portion of the world has withheld recognition of Kosovo as a sovereign state). When there is some significant meeting of the minds about Kosovo, then it might be appropriate to proceed accordingly. To push too quickly on this is like picking on a scab that hasn't healed.
