<PRE>2010/12/10 Romain d'Alverny <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">rdalverny at gmail.com</A>>:
><i>
</I>><i> To summarize, strategies:
</I>><i>  1. ignore the issues and see what happens;
</I>><i>  2. ignore the less significant ones;
</I>><i>  3. get to know each of these and manage case by case
</I>><i>  4. other?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> and factor whenever possible and see what happens, update, repeat.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 1. and 2. are more radical, but are some sort of trial-and-error, risk
</I>><i> management strategies. Ok... looking at it this way won't lead us
</I>><i> further I guess.
</I>
Agreed
><i> Let's try this: what if we consider, at first, that software patents
</I>><i> were a non-issue? (that is, we just consider they are all invalid as
</I>><i> such).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> How would this change/simplify the problem?
</I>><i>  - for packaging/shipping the distribution
</I>><i>  - for mirroring it
</I>><i>  - for using it.
</I>
><i>From a mirror maintainer's view:
</I>If I am in a country like France (not acknowledging SP) I can ignore
safely the issue
If I am in a country which does acknowledge SP I will have to decide
for myself if I want to take that risk. THis may be an easy decision
in some countries but in others (like the USA) it may be a hard
decision, also depending on who I am (a private person or a large
institution/organisation).
><i>From the users's view:
</I>Living in a country without SP (or not caring about the issue) it is
the easiest way. I can use automagical setup of media and need not
worry about an extra repo to set before I can watch my DVDs :)
Again in a country like USA I have to decide for myself - this would
be a nightmare if the "whatever-dubious" software is included in the
normal repos. I would have to find out by myself which is "ok" to use
and which is not.
