Thanks to everyone who pointed out that there is in fact an agreed
territorial sea boundary between Denmark and Sweden in the Oresund, dating
back to January 1932. So (sadly) it doesn't appear that we have a new
territorial curiosity on our hands.
However, I _am_ correct in saying that on Thursday the int-boundaries list
will celebrate its fifth birthday. We currently have 386 members in (as far
as it's possible to tell from email addresses) 51 countries, and to date we
have exchanged just over 1,100 messages. For those who care to join me in a
virtual toast, I will be in the pub from 6pm BST on Thursday. Cheers!
