At least, write it up in plain English.
For instance, if I copy the DVD from my ISO file, to give to friends, am I redistributing the DVD?
Yes, you do.
Argh.
Then, what is the correct procedure? They download it and burn it on their own? Today the 100% correct procedure is to download and copy the 1CD version as it allows redistribution. And that's why we'd like change the DVD slightly to allow exactly the redistribution for everyone. We never had any of the software vendors going after somebody as all of them want to have their software in as many hands as possible (e.g. acroread) but for an user it would be good having a) an easy to read and understandable EULA and b) an EULA allowing redistribution.

(Not good... some do not have internet. Some just want to try, will not endure the work of downloading and burning, so they ask "please give me a copy". Its Linux, so its free. )
