Well, gee whiz, that is nothing new. What do you think the whole
industry is doing, not acting pragmatically? Are you saying that we
should not follow Mr. Burke's fine example, as well as so many others,
and not try to correct this idiocy? Just roll over and pretend it is OK?
That isn't being pragmatic. That is being docile. In my mind, if you are
not fighting for correction, and to do what is best for all of the
products affected, it is also irresponsible.

Inge,
We have plenty of negative data on lead-free, whether it is reliability
of the solder, IMC voiding on copper pads, mixing Pb and Pb-free solder,
PCB damage in Pb-free reflow, etc. But our job is to be pragmatic, to
look for solutions and know what can and cannot be done.
I'd rather be using PbSn solder but that is not the political reality
today.
