Question: is there any chance getting FREE inland ENCs of the German part of the Rhine River? By searching via Google, Yahoo, I found free ENCs for the Danube River (Austrian section) at http://www.doris.bmvit.gv.at/inland_ecdis/ueberblick/vorteile/ , for the Netherlands at http://www.risserver.nl/ENC/ , for the U.S. at http://chart.tec.army.mil/ChartServerV2.0/jsp/index.jsp , but nothing seems to be available for rivers in Germany.

This article is not NPOV as it clearly is written by an IMO official or an ECDIS manufactrurer who wishes to promote further regulations. "This distinction is often over-looked by would be purchasers, but those lawyers may not be quite so ready to ignore the regulations." For example a sentence like the above does not belong in an encyclopedic article. Strong capitalized words like HAVE TO and IMMEDIATELY are not used in a manner to invoke the writers own opinions to the reader. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.85.4.5 (talk) 11:48, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Changed Vector Charts to ENC charts

There are a number of companies that provide digitized charts that have nothing to do with any legal defination ECDIS. Some parts of Google maps are a good example. ENC is also pretty meanless but what the heck.
