[vlc] Re: Request for Permission

[Tristan Leteurtre]

Redistribution of VideoLAN software is free, provided it complies with
the terms of the GNU General Public License. An example of valid distri-
bution, and probably the most convenient for you, is to distribute
together, on the same media, the source code for the program whose
binary version you are distributing and the source code for the
third-party libraries it may use.

If you are distributing a version of VLC, you need to include
the following files:
  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.6.0/vlc-0.6.0.tar.gz
    (these files contain the GPL license as well as source code)
  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videloan/vlc/0.6.0/contrib
    (for the third party libraries )
  
  If you want to distributed binaries for specific OS :

  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.6.0/macosx/vlc-0.6.0.dmg
  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.6.0/win32/vlc-0.6.0-win32.exe
  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.6.0/deb directory (Linux debian)
  - http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.6.0/rpm directory
    (Linux mandrake & RedHat).

There is one additional issue you need to take care of. The VLC
binary from our website can also read encrypted DVDs with the help of
the libdvdcss library. Its use is controversial in a few countries
such as the United States because of a law called the DMCA. If you are
unsure about the legality of using and distributing this library in
your country, please consult your lawyer.

If you have any other question, please feel free to contact us again.
It is not necessary, but receiving a copy of this edition of your
magazine would be always be very fun.
