Hi, does anyone know if there's any plans to include the packages from the Ubuntu Multiverse repository that are there because of possible patent problems rather than because they're non-free, such as the MPEG codecs? If the developers have legal worries could they be in a separate repository for users to add later, like the whole Multiverse one is for Ubuntu?
There's no plans for doing this. We remove and alter stuff, we don't add it. There's enough of a legal mess here that I don't want to touch it. Brian
