Subject: Athens Olympics site policy regarding links to the site

Hello,

The Athens Olympics organizers have created a policy [1]
for linking to the Website that is inconsistent with both
the "When to use Get" finding [2] and to some extent
the Deep Linking finding [2]. In particular,
the policy states:

"For your protection and ours we have established a procedure for
parties wishing to introduce a link to the ATHENS 2004 website on
their site. By introducing a link to the ATHENS 2004 official
Website on your site you are agreeing to comply with the ATHENS
2004 Website General Terms and Conditions."

(They can be contacted at terms@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)

_ Ian

P.S. Thanks to Karl Dubost for raising awareness of this.
