[sdiy] *** SPAM *** Latvian export control issues

[usenet at teply.info]

Hi Dave,

being an export control officer myself in the semiconductor field in 
germany, I can tell that things can be quite a bit complicated. On the 
other hand, at least in the context of audio synthesizers, I can hardly 
imagine those being subject to export controls.

If you can tell me (potentially off-list) what you'd like to buy and 
where it's supposed to be shipped to, I can look into it.

Bests,
Florian
