Can someone please describe, here or privately to me, what the current
rules are for dialing in France?  As I understand it, all French
numbers are now 8 digits, there are no city codes, and dialing within
France always involves 8 digits.  But I believe that there's some
strangeness with respect to dialing the Paris area (Ile de France?)
from the rest of the country.  Also, what needs to be done to dial
from outside France, and is Paris distinguished from the rest of the
country in this regard?  Thanks...
