You can read this as (100% Free) Software or as 100% (Free Software), but either way, debian doesn't include non-free non-software. > It doesn't prevent Debian to > distribute something else than software. True. We have non-free for just such a reason. The social contract DOES prevent such things (non-free stuff and non-software stuff) being part of Debian. If it's not free software, it's not debian. Personally, I consider electronic documents to be a subset of "software", so non-free is sufficient to hold GFDL documents. If you'd rather introduce a non-software archive, feel free to propose it. > This is an extreme vision of freedom I do not share.
