Hi Guys,
Just a quick enquiry about software we would like to give out at Software Freedom Day.
One of our members has offered to burn a number of Linux Mint CD's and DVD'd to give out at the event, coupled with a howto guide to show how to install it.
One of our other members thinks we can't do that because Linux Mint comes with Proprietary media codecs.
The mere fact it's illegal in many places should be the end of the discussion. Another thing I don't want to promote is the use of patented software. I would have thought that to be obvious by now, specially on this list, but I'll gladly help getting more information to understand this. It's an important part of the questions we get everytime we promote any free software in Quebec (and Colombia, in my personal case). Cheers, Fabian
