my goal is a *free* debian-edu, without non-free software. however, note that *i* and some other debian developers working on the project voted to keep non-free around in the recent GR (not for love for non-free, but because removing it would hurt debian as a whole). (check the voting overview for details.) as soon as free replacements are available we could drop the non-free stuff. even opera. (c: we should keep the priorities straight, though: debian-edu NEEDS more features, urgently, (to be provided by free software), to become a great, usable, free product for schools. As we go we can strive to reach each of those goals (great, usable, free) gradually, without hurting and setting back the others.
