I don't understand. Either Social Contract section one and the DFSG prohibit the distribution of a non-free blob in the release, or they do not. If they prohibit it, then it is an override to distribute notwithstanding the prohibition. If they do not prohibit it, then no resolution is necessary. You seem to say an inconsistent thing: that they do prohibit it, and we can avoid that prohibition by calling it a "practical consensus" instead of an "override". Surely, however, it is the effect that matters, and not the label you give it. Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
