It it my understanding (which may be obsolete or even simply erroneous) that in Germany computer games are not to be made available to children unless they have been approved and that the approval costs money. In any case, there are other jurisdictions with wonky laws restricting some software and new laws are enacted every day. Some countries used to forbid their citizens possession of encryption software (some minor ones probably still do). Several US states have attempted to enact legislation restricting distribution of computer games in ways which Debian might run afoul of. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
