I am still contemplating whether the actual source transfer is a fee

Well, i am no lawyer, but i hardly find this non-free [...]
Why is it free? Why should the licensor be allowed to make any
licensee to represent themselves in France? Much of your argument
seems to be about choice of law rather than choice of venue. I think
most people accept choice of law.
That said, i made those objections, and nobody cared to CC me their

I have been away. I find your impatience as irritating as your
continual unprovoked rudeness and paranoia.
For example, you must surely know why grep won't give a true list of
affected packages, if you have given it any real thought. If you still
don't get it, go look at the policy manual. (This is not my preferred
style. It is an example of what Sven Luther keeps doing.)
