This info is from the official "unofficial" meeting notes from the 10 Dec 2004 TAC meeting.

The list of expanded exemptions now includes:

"Lead used in compliant pin connector systems"
"Lead as a coating material for the thermal conduction module c-ring"
"Lead and cadmium in optical and filter glass"
"Lead in solders consisting of more than two elements for the connection between the pins and the package of microprocessors with a lead content of more than 80% and less than 85% by weight"
"Lead in solders to complete a viable electrical connection between semiconductor die and carrier within integrated circuit Flip Chip packages"

Lead in glass, such as leaded crystal, is still being considered.

See the following website for more detail:

All members may also want to note that the exemption for leaded solders in servers, storage and storage array systems has been extended indefinitely.  Good news for a Friday, huh?

Is this exemption written down anywhere?  Where might I find out for sure?

I believe glass containing lead, such as used in optics, is now exempt.
