Russ,
If you sell any products into the European Union (EU), they will either have to be compliant to the RoHS directive, which includes other materials in addition to lead, or will have to meet an exemption, You will need to get a copy of the directive and review it to determine if your products are exempted (which isn't many).
Subscribe to the IPC LeadFree forum - you'll also get a ton of good info there.

Good Morning Technet,
I am at the early stages of learning about lead free solder as an
alternative option to our current tin/lead solder HASL.
Is there anyone out there who can comment about their experiences?
Currently I have no customers requesting this process, but I need to be
ahead of this need when feasible.
Vendors have provided both sides, yes PCB makers are doing it and a large
PCB maker tried it and discontinued using it.
Thanks in advance.
Russ Burdick, trying to lessen the HASL hassle
