</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; Le mardi 12 octobre 2010 &#195;&#160; 17:53 +0200, Olivier M&#195;&#169;jean a &#195;&#169;crit :
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt; == And DVDCSS, etc?
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; What's in etc ?
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; However, here in France we have a law &quot;Dadvsi&quot; on which the Conseil
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Constitutionnel (something like American Suprem Court) has statuted
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> that
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; the law could not prevent exception of decompilation and the
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> exception
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; of circumvention of DRM if this is for interoperability. In other
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> words
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; the use of libdvdcss is allowed for interoperability.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; So for me, Mageia can come with libdvdcss and other tools for
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; interoperability
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; And for the people hosting mirrors outside of France ?
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> It's their own responsability, no one force them, and some in the world
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> take
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the responsability to host mirrors with questionnable software. Let's
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> give
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> them the liberty to choose as we have the opportunity here in France to
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> ship
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> such software. No one forces several company, university, or other
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> groups to
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> mirror ArchLinux, PCLinuxOS, LinuxMint, PLF
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> So I assume that you volunteer to find another Tier 1 mirror to replace
</I>&gt;<i> ibiblio.org ?
</I>
Well, ibiblio.org contains other distros that contain patented software
(like arch and debian), and dvdcss (arch), and more than likely many
others:
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/">ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/</A>

(note: I'm still not suggesting having or not having such software, just
noting this fact)
