Is there a reason why those interested in supporting blob-dependant hardware can't make a release that includes those blobs? As per SC #1 they can't refer to it as "Debian", but they can use the project's resources to build and distribute it, and there can be healthy interaction between both codebases. What I mean to say, is that there's no need for end users to jump from one edge to the other. A middle ground can be useful too. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
