I've done in quick and dirty french translation that can be reached on 
http://libre.grenouille.com/fsf/eucd/. Can be useful for you. Need comments 
of course. 

Maybe you can say that the directive is like allowing the right to a stencil 
compagny to prohibit to their stencil user to use it to critize the stencil

See you.
