   In Italy we can't distributed printed stuff so easily. The publisher
   (or importer) must deliver 4 copies to the police before being allowed
   to distirbute. And magazines (those published once every
   month/whatever) must have additional authorizations. [1]

well, if it is a state law to do so, then we have no other choice
(it looks worse in Italy than in China --- in China, you could distribute
any copies to anybody, police station never acts under this censorship...)

   Free press? Never heard of that in this part of the world.

I am glad to know you say so (actually I am proud of this)!  Why 
not unite all of our community and try it now with Free Software Magazine?

Best wishes,
Frederic
