I realized after I sent this that it doesn't convey what I actually meant. Maintainers must not put non-free software in main. The only guaranteed way to meet this requirement is to review the source code they package. In reality, we have no way of enforcing that they do review the source code (which is good, I don't want a personal enforcement arm of policy). However, we do have a way to enforce that non-free stuff doesn't get into main, which is almost as good. So I don't see what good a specific rule stating "maintainers must review source" will do over the current rule of "non-free things cannot go in main". -- Joe Wreschnig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
