Hello,

As far as I can see, most (maybe all) of the projects in
code.google.com are open source. With different licenses, that's true,
but still most/all of these licenses at least grants the permission to
study the code.

However, access to code.google.com apparently is denied to some
countries, like Cuba, for example. Isn't it contradictory to provide a
repository for open source projects and then denying access to whole
countries, regardless of the privileges that licenses grant?

If the problem is that the servers are in US soil, or that since
Google is from USA it cannot provide this service to blacklisted
countries, wouldn't at least it be possible to offer an option to make
a mirror in servers located elsewhere where US government cannot
impose restricting access, like maybe http://ftp.heanet.ie ?

I look forward to your replies.

Best regards, Hugo
