at the moment Austria is still not issueing JAA licences... in fact, I was told some time ago that they weren't going to mess with it at all! Recently, though, I have heard that they were soon going to inact the JAR-FCL after all....
So it seems you still must be a bit patient.... and even after they inact it, who knows what their requirments will be....

i got a question...
Austria currently issues Austrian licenses if you show them an FAA license. AFAIK, its an idependent license. So if i get one of those, and JAA does become effective after that, could i theoretically convert the austrian license to a JAA license for almost no Cost?

Austria has not yet ratified JAR-FCL. There are some rumors that they will ratify in the next 12 months but then again they may also wait until EASA fully is implemented.
If you have a FAA license then the Austrian would give you a PPL equivalent based on your US license. To get a full Austrian license you still have to complete the written and practical exam.
