[opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

[Martin Spernau]

Just as a note here: In Germany for example even if you 'just' publish  
a simple webpage/blog, you are required (by law) to state your real  
life name and address (Impressum)
This may not be a requirement when you publish content outside of  
Germany (it is in many other countries too as I think)
