I think Mageia should include as much multimedia codecs as possible,
it the
user's responsibility to know the laws of his/her country and if
necessary
uninstall anything unlicensed/illegal in his/her country.
Not only multimedia but drivers too ... in my humble personal opinion /
wishes.
Unfortunately, if this is done, I will no longer be able to install
legally any Mageia due to our laws. I think it is best if these are not
installed but let users know where to get them, mostly through PLF.
When I install Mandriva Free for people, I will let them know where the
PLF repos are and the files needed and they install these themselves.
If Mageia packages include unlicensed software and codecs, the Mageia
brand may be held legally responsible for marketing software in
countries where the laws do not permit this. I don't really think would
be a wise decision.
