[ Request to add non-free-firmware ]
Okay, I'm fine with adding non-free-firmware. I assume the other
members of the ftp team are also still fine with this.
Should we add it to testing/unstable/experimental in one go? Or does
the release team prefer to wait with adding it to testing?
We can always revert the addition temporarily if we find bugs that take
a while to fix.
I did a quick grep in britney and it may be ok as is, so I'd say go ahead with
it and if things break we can look at them.
The transition tracker & ben may need the new component added in its config
files, and the release-tools will need extra changes, though that shouldn't
block those as that is mostly used for (old)stable.
Cheers,
