Hi

It has been pointed out in the fedora-marketing list about your effort 
on merging all the Fedora related FAQ's into the wiki. While this is 
good intent, there are thorny legal issues with linking directly to 
repositories that provide legally questionable content within US laws. 
Since Fedora Project only Free and open source software not restricted 
by patents globally, this doesnt fit with the project's idealogical 
goals either.  I have removed the inappropriate FAQs from the wiki.

There is a already a central FAQ in the wiki available from

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ

If you require any clarifications kindly revert back. I would appreciate 
more coordination with the docs or marketing project in Fedora before 
getting started with new efforts such as this so that we can ensure that 
the ideas are peer reviewed and your efforts are useful to everyone 
involved.

Thanks


regards
Rahul
