Okey. As I've said I'm more familiar with British based law than
French based (is Azerbaijan Russian based?). The problem is that
British does not have PD laws and has never done so which means that
anyone with an English law based legal system who hasn't updated the
relevant sections will not have PD laws. Rather a lot of countries
have English law based legal systems.
