There was a dutch person who piped up on one of the journals (maybe the greatest journal) regarding the LJ screw up of the past few days. They were considering creating a new journal system in the Netherlands spesifically because of the laws there. Perhaps that person is someone to tap with questions regarding this archive?
I'll see if I can find them again.
And re the general issue: as I understand it, the safe harbor provisions do actually protect servers from the underage question (plus the overturning of the internet child protection law thingy - name escapes me. Legally, (as I understand it) there's no realistic problem but what people actually need to fee comfortable is a separate issue.
It's fairly simple to attach a code to any story rated adult that creates a drop down box that says something like 'adult materieal, by clicking here ... blah, blah'.
