+<PRE>2010/12/10 Romain d'Alverny &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">rdalverny at gmail.com</A>&gt;:
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> To summarize, strategies:
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;1. ignore the issues and see what happens;
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;2. ignore the less significant ones;
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;3. get to know each of these and manage case by case
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;4. other?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> and factor whenever possible and see what happens, update, repeat.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. and 2. are more radical, but are some sort of trial-and-error, risk
+</I>&gt;<i> management strategies. Ok... looking at it this way won't lead us
+</I>&gt;<i> further I guess.
+</I>
+Agreed
+
+&gt;<i> Let's try this: what if we consider, at first, that software patents
+</I>&gt;<i> were a non-issue? (that is, we just consider they are all invalid as
+</I>&gt;<i> such).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> How would this change/simplify the problem?
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- for packaging/shipping the distribution
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- for mirroring it
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- for using it.
+</I>
+&gt;<i>From a mirror maintainer's view:
+</I>If I am in a country like France (not acknowledging SP) I can ignore
+safely the issue
+If I am in a country which does acknowledge SP I will have to decide
+for myself if I want to take that risk. THis may be an easy decision
+in some countries but in others (like the USA) it may be a hard
+decision, also depending on who I am (a private person or a large
+institution/organisation).
+
+&gt;<i>From the users's view:
+</I>Living in a country without SP (or not caring about the issue) it is
+the easiest way. I can use automagical setup of media and need not
+worry about an extra repo to set before I can watch my DVDs :)
+Again in a country like USA I have to decide for myself - this would
+be a nightmare if the &quot;whatever-dubious&quot; software is included in the
+normal repos. I would have to find out by myself which is &quot;ok&quot; to use
+and which is not.
