Shouldn't these repositories then be removed from the website?
[...] Frankly, it's really difficult to describe Packman and Guru because we have lots of different stuff in there. Multimedia (non-crippled), games, network tools, drivers, KDE themes, ... ...
A bit of everything, really.
Yes, it's really difficult to come up with a proper description. That's why I asked if somebody has a better way to explain it. Somehow and somewhere mentioning multimedia could be a good idea...
[...] Could be the start of a description but... would also have to check whether explaining that on the wiki is OK from a legal point-of-view.
ACK. However, I can't see a problem if, for instance, the Packman description contains the general information that a user can find multimedia stuff in this repository. The situation might be different if you want to mention that there are non-crippled versions which possibly violate patents etc. By the way, there are links on the opensuse website that point to these repositories - could that also cause legal problems? I know that the German website www.heise.de had some problems some time ago because they had a link on their website pointing to some software officially considered as illegal (this software bypasses DVD protection).
