I'm not following it in detail, because no-one is paying me to do so,
and people ARE paying me to do many other things.

I believe that many of the consumer products manufacturer have switched
to lead-free, and there has lately been some sort of agreement on which
alloys to use. Initially, there were compatibility problems between the
alloys used by manufacturers and those available to service technicians.

I still have a large reel of 60/40, and I'm not proposing to throw it
away, even if I could do that legally. (;-)

I've been brought up on lead; lead water pipes, heavy lead paint, 40/60
solder initially, then 60/40. Any damage has already been done. That's
probably why I'm not as clever as you guys.
