+<PRE>Le mercredi 13 octobre 2010 19:31:44, Michael Scherer a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> Le mardi 12 octobre 2010 &#224; 17:53 +0200, Olivier M&#233;jean a &#233;crit :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; == And DVDCSS, etc?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; What's in etc ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; However, here in France we have a law &quot;Dadvsi&quot; on which the Conseil
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Constitutionnel (something like American Suprem Court) has statuted that
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; the law could not prevent exception of decompilation and the exception
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; of circumvention of DRM if this is for interoperability. In other words
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; the use of libdvdcss is allowed for interoperability.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; So for me, Mageia can come with libdvdcss and other tools for
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; interoperability
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> And for the people hosting mirrors outside of France ?
+</I>
+It's their own responsability, no one force them, and some in the world take
+the responsability to host mirrors with questionnable software. Let's give
+them the liberty to choose as we have the opportunity here in France to ship
+such software. No one forces several company, university, or other groups to
+mirror ArchLinux, PCLinuxOS, LinuxMint, PLF
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Shall we forget them ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; About codec, you may know that VLC is based in France and hosts some
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; projects useful for interoperability. Since the start of the project in
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 1996, i don't remember VLC being sued for such projects. So let's
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; provide codec by default with Mageia for a better &quot;user experience&quot; :)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;no one has been sued yet&quot; is not a real argument.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> No one sued mplayer developers for distributing binary copyrighted
+</I>&gt;<i> codecs. No one sued <A HREF="http://www.dll-files.com/">http://www.dll-files.com/</A> , despites distributing
+</I>&gt;<i> windows dlls.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Yet, what they do is a clear violation of various copyright treaties.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So no, the fact that no one has been sued is not a reason to do the
+</I>&gt;<i> same.
+</I>
+If no one has been sued yet is not a real argument, that's not a reason to
+live under FUD, to do nothing fearing that maybe in the future there would be
+a trial.
