This is an excerpt of my "what kind of change is this" that I included with each of my drafts. In some cases, the changes were trivial (cleaning up grammar), so I did not describe them in any detail. I believe I've indicated all substantial changes with more explicit description.
http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01453.html This is an update to my previous proposal to address some of the criticisms the proposal has received. In this proposal, I spell out in a bit more detail the relationship between our guidelines and our "non-free" distribution, and clean up the rest of part 5 to fit. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01374.html This draft introduces further cleanups and corrections. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01351.html I've made several changes in the wording of part 5 to improve spelling and grammar. I've also changed the title of part 5 to be about Software, like the rest of the social contract. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01327.html I've made several changes in the wording of part 5 to improve grammar, reduce my overuse of "to depend" words, and make clearer the reason I'm mentioning LSB in the context of non-free. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01272.html I've fixed several errors in part five. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01227.html Changes from the previous version (msg01188.html): [1] replace "programs" with the more general term "software" (part 5), [2] change the free alternatives language to better reflect what we do (part 5), [3] Incorporate wholesale updates to parts 2, 3 and 4 as suggested by Andrew Suffield at http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01192.html [4] Make explicit the constitutional removal of the DFSG from the social contract, [5] Remove a bit of language from the meta-title which I added in the previous version (msg01188.html). http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01188.html This version removes "Linux" from the title and spells out who the contract is with. I also fix the grammatical mistake Sven found. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01184.html These changes make the relevance of non-free software more explicit. http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/debian-vote-200401/msg01122.html First draft -- Raul
