Ummm, possibly because the metallurgy suggests there isn't a suitable
replacement for the high lead, high temp alloys. Nothing to date seems
likely to be able to meet the high temp requirement and come close to the
other physical performance requirements. Research projects are being run but
nothing to shout about yet - as far as I'm aware.

Subject: [LF] EU directive clarification
The Parliament also included an exemption for "lead in high melting
temperature type solders" which the Commission included in its June 6
amended proposal, adding a parenthetical: ("i.e., tin-lead solder alloys
containing more than 85% lead)". Any insight on the import of this?
