Nobody know the laws of every country in the world.
Just because some software might be covered by patents in a FEW countries,
you want to make users in the rest of the world suffer the inconvenience
of not having proper multimedia support out of the box?
I think Mageia should include as much multimedia codecs as possible, it the
user's responsibility to know the laws of his/her country and if necessary
uninstall anything unlicensed/illegal in his/her country.
