FrSIRT - Victim of French Laws?

A couple of days after my first post on the issue of FrSIRT, I saw a hint on the internet that their actions may have been pushed by French law. FrSIRT closed their public exploit recently and now it seems that French law was the primary reason, or so they say.

Anyone in France want to shed some light on these laws? Are they just French copyright law, as suggested in the court case of Guillermito in 2002?

While they deny that it was for commercial reasons, I am sure it didn't hurt business any Business is business and exploits can ALWAYS be found outside of France.

If you know of any other good sources (I can think of a few more Russian sites), shoot me a comment and let me know. I might make a little side bar list of them.
