This discussion could also be moved to the CDA listserv.  There has
been one set up since this started last year.   Anyone may subscribe to
the list by sending a subscription command to <LISTPROC at WILLAMETTE.EDU>.
For example, if your name was "John Doe" your subscription request would
be: SUBSCRIBE CDA-L John Doe

>From the listserv's welcome message:
"CDA96-L is open to the networking community. Its primary role is
to serve as a means of communication among people who are concerned
about the implications of the United States of America's COMMUNICATIONS
DECENCY ACT of 1996 (signed into law by President William J. Clinton
on February 8, 1996).  Its secondary role is to serve as a discussion
forum for similar legislation or regulation that may be in the formative
or final stages in any other country, or at any local jurisdiction that
would restrict, limit or inhibit use of Internet resources based on
"decency", "morality", "offensiveness", or based on the age of someone
using, operating, or accessing an Internet resource."
