Yes, this is totally off-topic as far as Linux and Ubuntu are concerned. And yes I have posted in law oriented forums but responses are awfully slow.

Does anyone here have experience with setting up business directory sites in Europe? How does EU law govern these?

For example, can the owner/maintainer populate these directories? Do they need permission from business owners to enter the data into the directory?

Is it possible to limit the audience down to a certain religious or ethnic community? Or does this infringe on discrimination laws?

Any good sources of info on the net?

Thank you :)
