John, Ian, etc.

Interesting to note that Zener part #. Is there a list available
somewhere that gives data on various EU and Asian Zeners?  I can only
find some very spotty info ( Toshiba) and almost none have ECG or NTE
equivalents. 
A source of 20W diodes may be attractive since over here the options are
fairly well limited at 1 to 10W and then a big jump to 50W.
