I am not disagreeing with the decision to be safe from potential for
legal action. I did mistake the author of the proposal as you, as the
linked Loomio page starts with, "From TPG".
https://www.loomio.org/d/t3NUhoBu/libdvdcss
but I can see, now,
"Raphaël Jadot <https://www.loomio.org/u/H9V7EcJg/raphael-jadot> created
a proposal: Include libdvdcss in main repos
3 months ago"
So, I am in agreement with the ultimate decision against this proposal.

Sure we can include all stuff what is patented. I wonder who will then take the
responsibility of further court suits, or any further charges?

My read is that TPG proposed inclusion of libdvdcss in main/iso and
disagree votes prevailed. At any rate, I use VLC a lot, along with
others, but I realize I have to adjust to what development provides, in
OMV or elsewhere. The pulse of *this* community member is that the
profanity, condescending remarks, and personal attacks are neither
productive nor welcome.

This was raised by TC to support libdvdcss and friend libraries to
support DVD play. OMA Council dedided this is still a patent threat
to our community and we can not provide such software.
To cut that discussion, our products are FREE and support FREE/LIBRE
software.
Ok , It is romp OSS? Or qmplay2? they work out of the box ... all i'm
seeing here is your stubbornness in keeping vlc... as i saw bero and
proyvind ware much more
open to debate , this is a problem and hide under a decision that was
taken outside the real world
is childish , but since you are the big man here and I ain't nobody,
of course you have right
to do whatever you please, seeing this , MANDRIVA SA -like attitude of
yours i'm glad that
I'm just an outsider,... and now c'mon , honestly what would be my
dark and devious
purposes in dropping that vlc crap?
qmplay2 will be the default player on lxde-qt, very well maintained,
romp is the best , no need further more comments,
smplayer no comments, why you want the vlc crap so bad? Did they pay you?
On what serious linux distro is vlc the default player?
all players based on mplayer or ffpaly support out of the box dvd
play...
It might be OPENmandriva but the old habits never change.... and you
TPG is one of the
"old habits", you would do a perfect team with A.N and Misc.
A open minded association would take the user side and not
his own commodity ...
I hate mdv and all what it was about it , and now you are acting like
they would....
I just wonder with how many end users are you in touch , just to feel
the pulse of the day...???
For your information top of the pops is multimedia, first thing searched
by a normal user, ..and this libdvdcss excuse is bullshit ( and i'm
polite here),
no need for close/restricted player /codecs in order to have a
full-optional
default media player, an i'm more then sure that if you bring this to
your council
will agree with dropping vlc... if no serious distro adopt vlc as default
must be a reason...
IMO you are still believe that that small amount of users that we have
will accept everything you impose them , then you can be proud ,
MANDRVA SA
lives in you.
bleah I'm out of here.
PS:
Blacky might be a "bigmouth" and the installer can not be changed in time
but he has a point, you justify your decisions with your proposals....
https://www.loomio.org/d/t3NUhoBu/libdvdcss
From TPG:
one of 2014.0 specs needs Council decision:
bla bla bla
and we stuck with vlc ... did they pay you well ??? did they hire there?
I've being around long enough to read the subtitles....
I might be a nobody but you just pissed this nobody off...
And long live mandriva s.a ....bleah..
I'm really thrilled to be part of the team...
Greetings
