No more so than would be required under the Data Protection Act in the
UK, but as the project and pgsql.com servers are neither in France or
the UK, the content on them doesn't have to comply with those laws -
though in the interests of privacy and general good practice we should
probably try to do so.
Of course, the mirrors are a different issue altogether. Currently I
guess it's up to the mirror operators to let us know if anything doesn't
comply with their local laws.
Regards, Dave.

RedHat is a French company in France (as well as Mandrake). The law does not
care for the location of servers, mirrors, etc... If a French company asks to
register, it shall obey the laws. PostgreSQL inc. is not at stake here.

Agreed. Good practice is the beginning of democracy.
Cheers,
