[Foundation-l] Texts deleted on French Wikisource

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
When I read:  "Wikisource content in the French language targets the French
public, and therefore, under French conflict of laws principles, the
copyright law of France applies to this content." I do read the French
public. Wikisource does not target the French public per se.
Thanks,
      Gerard<
