Can anyone tell me the status of GR-78:

"6.1.1.5 Conductor Materials and Finishes

R6-8 [178] Silver shall not be used as a conductor or contact finish. This
restriction also applies to the use of silver in conductive polymeric
materials used in the manufacture of PWBs, unless acceptable reliability
data is provided to the Network Operator or its designated representative"

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

David.
