Wow.  debian-legal is fascinating.  I have a newfound respect for the
people that have constructed the debian idealogy.  Here, for example,
they are arguing about the legal possibility of distributing debian on
orange peals, and no one even bats an eyelash (or provides a smiley face
to indicate that they are joking):

As for Debian/FSF, there seems to be an odd problem that FSF refuses to
endorse debian because debian will recommend nonfree packages, yet
Debian has some problems with FSF because FSF's definition of "free"
isn't sufficiently hardcore.
