 WV>> Can you implement the /DELETE function!
 TK> Seems to be implemented now.
Nope. Not yet. In fact I don't think I actually need to seeing as the only personally identifying info is freely available all over the place.. ie name/alias and node number. Also, as it stands now, it's easy enough to send something like this to the server:

/UPDATE
%Contact=Mickey Mouse
%FirstName=Mickey
%Surname=Mouse

That should do enough to handle most people's concerns ;-)

Also true. I'm really curious about this though. I put "Wilfred van Velzen" into google and it came back with all sorts of interesting information, including inter alia:

So.. are they in violation of the EU Law?
