Hi Mark, thanks for your opinion! I also agree, especially on the collaboration part. I, and therefore currently the server which hosts the website, am located in Taipei, Taiwan. I am only a student here, however, and in fact a German citizen. Also I'm in contact with the national crypto scene (which is kind of small in a country this small). For now I cannot imagine the government doing anything spectacular to please the US, but of course: who knows. If anybody has further thoughts on that situation, please voice them. :) -- Niklas Lemcke - 林樂寬
