Still lobbies or just by incompetence ?? Europe won't be the model which it want to be by that way... First DADVSI, now proprietaries codec ... tomorrow only culture for rich users with MS windows + MS IE6 + money + $$ + money... I don't expand on the legacy question which is treaty by others. Encore des lobby ou juste par pure incompétence ? L'europe ne sera pas le modèle qu'elle souhaite être. D'abord la DADVSI, maintenant les formats propriétaires, demain la culture réservée aux plateformes MS windows + MS IE + argent + €€ + argent²... Je ne traite pas de la question légale que d'autres font... WHERE IS GONE LIBERTY ???

Il serait temps d'apprendre ce qu'est la logique pourquoi encourager l'utilisation de linux et autres logiciel libre dans plusieurs parlement en Europe si en même on se permet ce genre d'affirmation, de plus il est inadmissible d'utiliser des formats tel que .wmv pour diffuser des fichiers à l'intention de tout les citoyens sachant quer ça pose des problèmes soit technique soit de flou juridique.

Contrairement à ce qui se lit dans votre FAQ, ll n'existe aucune raison légale de ne pas supporter linux. Linux est un stystème libre de droits. De plus pourquoi payer des royalties à Microsoft qui est une entreprise monopolistique extra-européènne ? Quel que soit mon système informatique, je veux pouvoir visionner des contenus multmédias dans un format libre de droits.

The European Community makes a point of supporting minority languages, and rightly so. Besides a cultural argument, this is because speakers of minority languages have a democratic right to have the opportunity to express themselves in their own language. The same democratic attitude should be taken towards making the meetings of the Counsel available to everyone.
