They understand the mirrors currently have no way of blocking residents of
Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea or any other country to which the
United
States embargoes goods, or (ii) to the Bosnian Serbs from downloading and
installing the package?
That's a provision of the U.S. govt, (followed by the canadian and many other
govts), which means that mirrors can't be located in such countries. But there
is nothing to stop residents of those countries from downloading the software,
except censorship by various govts. (Which does happen.)
A mirror is not initiating the transfer, and likely has no idea of the real
source of the download request.
Wich means that _if_ we provide it, it has to go into tainted repo, as
it's restricted by it's license.
That said, I'm not very comfortable with the 30-day trial aspect. I don't see
our role as distributing shareware. But whatever is decided ...
Yeah,
I'm not really fond of the idea of providing shareware on our mirrors
either.
