&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Mageia won't be installed only in France; those patents still apply in
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> other countries so not all patent restrictions can be dropped.
</I>&gt;<i> And going that way you will have to drop each software that will break a law
</I>&gt;<i> in a country ...
</I>&gt;<i>

</I>Hi,
+1
When I install a linux distro (Ubuntu - OpenSuse - Mandriva), my first 
reflex is to install all the &quot;non-free&quot; packages because I can not use 
the full functionnality of my PC (watching protected DVD, proprietary 
drivers like nvidia / ati / wireless ... etc. ...)

Is it possible to build a Mageia distro with all necessary package for 
easy use without all this patents problem and specifically for each 
country some specials web pages ?
In these web pages : the list of non-free packages to replace by free 
packages ...
(for example).

Patent restrictions are completely against ease of use and enjoying user 
experience.
</PRE>
