From <http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/840#comment-16997>:

"I'm going to have to put a statement out about this later: in short, once a 
certain number of orders were in, RS decided they didn't want to sell the 
boards as dev boards (which was what we'd planned for the first, uncased units 
- dev boards don't require CE marking - see Arduino, Beagleboard etc.) because 
the sales volumes were so big they were worried someone with a similar or 
competing product might try to cause some legal trouble over the definition of 
development board. We're still trying to work out if we can get some out 
earlier without CE marks to developers. We're rushing through compliance as 
fast as is humanly possible at the moment."
