Sweden will before the year 2000 change the international direct dial code
from 009 to 00. So will probably most other countries in Europe, thereby
following international recommendations.
Sweden will also prepare to use the 11x number for emergency calls etc.
We now use 90000 for emergency call. This also follows international
recommendations. This change may take much longer time as it effects
houndreds of thousands of subscribers whose numbers start with 1.
