Gregory is a good man to talk to, but his USA-based knowledge might
not match our needs.  As far as I know, the DMCA in USA prohibits
distribution of libdvdcss2.  More interesting for us is the european
and norwegian regulations, as ftp.skolelinux.org is located in Norway.
I'll try to activate someone with legal experience from Norway.

But I am definitely curious to what Gregory have to say on the topic.
