So you're saying that the DFSG doesn't allow Debian to consider "capture a bear to modify or redistribute this work" non-free, since it's not explicitly said in the DFSG, and that anyone who wants to "keep that software out" is free to "extend the DFSG"? (If that's not what you're saying, please clarify your position.) It's pretty clear to me that the DFSG already disallows this, and needs no "extending" to handle it. > do.

I think "you're not a DD, so shut up" is about the weakest argument possible, given the amount people stress that you don't need to be a DD to contribute. Please come back when you have some actual arguments. -- Glenn Maynard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
