May I forward your story on to the wikinews mailing list?
Sure.
I'd also appreciate if you have contact
details for the people
involved, i.e. the software authors and Iliad - if they have a press
contact.
Here are their emails, if you want to write to them:
Harald Welete (iptables):
laforge<at>gpl-violations.org
Rob Landley (Busybox):
rob<at>landley.net
Erik Andersen (Busybox):
andersen<at>codepoet.org
However, please consider that they are busy, especially Harald, so let
me know if I can help you directly.
About contacting Iliad, you should be able to contact Xavier Niel,
Iliad's main shareholder at the following email: xniel(a)corp.free.fr
