If it's Free Software, it goes in Main, unless it has crypto - then it goes in non-us/main (at least until the crypto in main thing is settled). If it's non-free software or depends on non-free software, it goes in non-free or contrib respectively, provided we're able to distribute it at all without infringing. -- Brian Ristuccia [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
