A new mailing list, eucrypto@fitug.de, has been established.  It's
intended for discussions of crypto politics with a focus on the
European Union.

Topics include:

- Announcements and discussions on common European issues concerning
  availability, use, legal framework and politics of cryptographic
  techniques.

- Announcements and discussions on common issues concerning
  communications interception and related topics, e.g.
  state-sponsored hacking of communication end points.

- Announcements and brief discussions on national issues which may
  be of interest abroad.  Extensive and in-depth discussions on such
  topics should be performed on respective national mailing lists
  such as ukcrypto@maillist.ox.ac.uk (for the UK), or krypto@thur.de
  (for Germany).

- Announcements and discussions on joint initiatives and campaigns
  concerning any of the abovementioned topics.
