That's not the real issue. The real issue, in the context of debian, is: what can be guaranteed to exist on the typical user's machine. And, that basically means the base system (or the essential packages). Or, maybe eventually, whatever LBS/LCS provides. Now, this discussion grew out of the desire to include a variety of standards documents with Debian. But I feel it's important to note that it's possible to replace standards (for example, Unix98 can be thought of as a replacement for some POSIX standards), but it's not legal to replace license documents. I think that this means that these are two distinct issues. -- Raul
