Unlike some, I do not have a perfect memory. Moreover, I do not appreciate vague "we already discussed this" references. I've read the damn thread; I ask the question because the previous discussion did not seem to actually *answer* the question. If the answer is so blindingly obvious, then really, it can simply be put down. Or a reference given if that's too much trouble. What I'm worried about is a question that I do not think *has* been answered, and that rather than answer it, we get "we already answered that" without any answer actually having appeared. So, while this question has been asked before--indeed--it has not been answered AFAICT. I've heard it asserted; you mentione the CIPE case. Is that the only case? Is ndiswrapper useful for CIPE? More to the point, it was said that it should be in main if there was a subset of users who would benefit from its presence there, even without the use of any non-free software. What is this subset of users, exactly? Are they users with CIPE hardware? (But they benefit more from the direct support of cipe anway.) Or what?
