Bonjour Olivier (from my side of the Atlantic)
From what I can say from a couple of discussion list maintainers at
local universities, they are aware of the laws somewhat and are taking
risks (their rationale -- you can always ask for forgiveness after you
have done it).
Re: Mint's OEM ISO -- I like this idea!
