I’ll be damned! I completely missed that the regulations were proclaimed in late June, and that yes, it all comes into force on August 4th. Mea culpa, that’s embarassing. I’m surprised how little attention it got in my usual info circles.

I understand August 4th to be “registry opens” day. I assume there’s some window of time to become compliant. I don’t know what it is. If I can carve some time out between work, school, and family I’ll try to get my head better wrapped around it. Obviously it’s an interest.
