I found this

and about 3/4 way down

The following are proposed exemptions, which are still pending a
formal review.

item 10
Cadmium in opto-electronic components

Did you see this one ? Under proposed exemptions.

Missed that one.. too many Item 8's in the damn document. I dont know
when the site was written, or who pb-free.info are.

I think its just a list of anyone who had a moan about RoHS, and fired
off a email. It is a bit tortuous to actually find out how too "find
out" about exclusions.

The DTI pages seem to have loads of info that is not legal, just guide
lines. If they dont know..............

I believe the items listed there are those currently formally under
consideration for exemption by the European Commission.

Hello Martin,

Missed that one.. too many Item 8's in the damn document. I dont know
when the site was written, or who pb-free.info are.

It looks like information provided by a consultancy, Dionics PLC in the UK:

I think its just a list of anyone who had a moan about RoHS, and fired
off a email. It is a bit tortuous to actually find out how too "find
out" about exclusions.

I don't think that it is just a groan list. They'd likely get into
trouble if it was.

Regards, Joerg
