I didn't mean to imply that this has been discussed within Debian. There has been a fair amount of discussion on the web though, with several controversial issues: * The previous licensing under LGPL-with-strings-attached [1] * The sudden relicensing from LGPL to GPL [2] * The current GPL-with-conditions license. In particular see the comments by Ext JS founder Jack Slocum [1], who was clearly opposed to redistribution under LGPL (this was before the switch to GPL). See also the Wikipedia talk page [3].
