[Freeciv-Dev] Illegal flags

[Daniel Markstedt <himasaram@xxxxxxxx>]

I was reading some very old mailing list archives, and came upon a very 
fierce discussion about a Nazi Germany nation. To make a long story 
short, the project was rejected because the Nazi swastika flag is 
banned by law in Germany (depending on context).
Then I came to think about three flags in Freeciv that are potentially 
controversial in China (PRC): Taiwan (aka Republic of China), Tibet and 
Turkestan. The two latter being my responsibility. Of these I know for 
sure that the flag of Tibet is forbidden in PRC. Should we care about 
whether Freeciv is a controversial software package in PRC or not?
Yet one flag that I have provided but not yet been committed, is the 
flag of Kurdistan: A flag that is banned in Syria and Iran...
