Hi Jil,

I searched both links (in French) for "propriétaire", "format", "drm", 
"ouvert" (open) and "éditeur" without success; I can't find any 
information about a mandatory open format, or anything about formats 
either...

@Jil or @Nico Rikken, can you quote the exact part of the text you're 
referring to? I can then translate for everyone if necessary.

Cheers,
Nico
