Perhaps not > everyone has. RFCs are definitely non-free because they're unmodifiable. They can't even be in contrib. What I'm not sure about is software that's freely modifiable but just requires non-free tools to build after modification. I know that's okay for contrib, and I know it's not okay for main in packages, but I wasn't sure if it was okay for main source packages if it's not installed in a main package. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
