:It's not just a matter of turning them off though. A few of the games in the
:distro are trademark infringements. While the product I'm developing that
:uses FreeBSD doesn't have the games installed, it brought up the comment
:from our lawyers "What else are they infringing on that we *are* using?"

:(see trek, mille, boggle, tetris, wargames)

:Kevin
Tetris hasn't been in the distribution for a while.
Your lawyers need a dose of reality if they think the existance of
the other games in a distribution could ever come back to haunt you
or your company. Tell them to screw their heads on straight and try
again. If your really worried, just delete them.
