EMI Opinion on Issuance of Electronic Money

This long awaited entry by the EMI into cyber-space monetary affairs
was snuck into the 1997 Annual Report of the EMI.

I have descrambled the original publication (carefully protected with
an obscure but unsafe algorithm called PDF) and placed a copy at:

http://www.systemics.com/docs/papers/EMI_1998_opinion.html

On my papers page is also located the original 1994 prepaid card
report, my critique of that, and a Dutch CB commentary that pre-dates
the opinion above somewhat.  There are some other big useful reports
mentioned that are actually on JYA's Cryptome for space reasons (ta
muchly, John!).

Enjoy!
