Feature changed by: Alex Bars (alexdbars) Feature #310854, revision 4 Title: Restrictive License openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Info Provider: (Novell) Requested by: Alex Bars (alexdbars) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Sorry, can openSUSE throw out that message on installation about: "As required by US law, you represent and warrant that you: (...) c) will not export, re-export, or transfer openSUSE 11.3 to any prohibited destination, entity... d) will not use or transfer openSUSE 11.3 for use in any sensitive nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons or missile technology end-uses... " Why must not to be used by militaries, if the license is GPL? Discussion: #1: Rémy Marquis (spyhawk) (2010-11-23 22:53:51) As far as I know, this rather silly message is mandatory because of the inclusion of strong cryptographic element. And yes, this US law is silly. We might be able to get rid of it once the openSUSE foundation is created. #2: Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) (2010-11-24 11:26:48) Maybe Juergen knows more why this is needed. + #3: Alex Bars (alexdbars) (2010-11-25 12:31:24) + At least on Brazil, silly things like that is enough to stay away from + our(my) beloved openSUSE!! -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310854
