+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> So we could eliminate the &quot;tainted&quot; repos, to facilitate putting packages
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> in
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> core or non-free as appropriate.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> There may have to be a few adjustments to show (or not) the packages

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;tainted&quot;, but that shouldn't be difficult.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Wouldn't that be easier ?
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> (At the same time, we could choose a name that doesn't indicate that there
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> is
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> something intrinsically wrong with the package.)
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> NO.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The decision to have a separated repo for tainted software is not up for
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> debate... It has already been discussed and decided long ago.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> as for the question that started this thread:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;Repository question: where do we put non-free+tainted RPMs?&quot;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> It's simple, and even outlined in the mirrors_policy:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy</A>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If there is a package that otherwise matches core or nonfree repos,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> but has a possible patent issue it ends up in tainted.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> As for splitting up tainted in tainted-core/tainted-nonfree,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I dont think it's really worth it, and no-one really argued
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> for it when we discussed the mirror layout...
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> --
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Thomas
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> i can't agree more with you thomas.
+</I>
+That's what I've been saying at the beginning of this discussion
+(before I dived into the argument with andre999)
