EDIS France & Russia?
I've been waiting since they released Sweden last month for these. It says April 2012 for the release date of these locations, and I thought it would be available like April 1 directly. I'm getting impatient here 
When do you think they'll release these locations? I'm mostly interested in Russia. Theoretically they could do it April 30 or April 6... (I hope they don't start with a small stock as it can get sold out because of potentially unsuccessful 'off-shore hosting' start-ups...)

Should just bribe them with some vodka or so :S
I find it rather odd that they didn't do their homework on moving hardware across the borders beforehand...
They just assumed it would be cool like moving stuff inside EU. And why wouldn't they buy servers in Russia, I don't think it would be much more expensive, even legit video games are 35% cheaper, and now that they'll pay 140% tax
We did, we had export documents and spoke with the Russian Embassy in Vienna along with our ISP in Russia and UPS - All of them confirmed that the tax rate would be just the VAT Rate (18%) and nothing special was needed.
Then the FSB came and now we wait.... and wait...... and wait.... Russia is simply special.
And no, we did certainly NOT think it is eas easy as inside the EU.
France is basically ready and goes out this week, which means it will be online next week.
As usual this dates are purely theoretical (like BuyVM stock is ba dum tssss) a few weeks more or less are always possible
hehe I love this meme..
Heh. Yeah, new initials, but nothing new about their policy. Looks like nothing's changed since I came to the States.
@Aldryic you left for good?
Depends on how bad the economy/govt here is by the time my daughter's an adult.
Did you keep the citizenship?
I'm also from Asia (yes yes, russia is not asia....) and it has advantages to have a few citizenships... also why Canada and not i.e. Israel or Germany?
Just interested
@William Aldryic lives in the States not Canada afaik.
Basically the same anyway
Negative. Gave that up when I enlisted.
Correct. Though Canada is another likely location if I get sick of the US.
