I apologize, I thought that "in my own personal opinion" was clear enough. I can add that the Debian FTP Masters apparently consider CC-by-v3.0 acceptable for the main archive, even though they have never [1] provided any explanation of the rationale behind their decision (at least as far as I know). [1] https://bugs.debian.org/431794 I can also add that I disagree with this Debian FTP Masters' decision, which I think is daft. I hope this clarifies. -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ There's not a second to spare! To the laboratory! ..................................................... Francesco Poli .
