I think that is the conclusion we are slowly moving towards and it's a terrible shame. > But then, if we're seeking for enemies, I believe they > are not on GNU side ... a. Debian supporters, please do not go off the deep end at FSF on this issue, but do what you must to keep Debian true to its goals. b. GNU helpers, please ask for free documentation from GNU to be free software too. Asking for free software documentation to be free software itself is reasonable. We do not need to give these concessions to publishers. Please let us know that you are trying. c. FSF, please listen! Debian has tried to be a faithful and helpful part of the free software community, not some collection of morons. Does that count for nothing? Are your helpers happy with this either? It is a shame that debian-legal seems to be the largest visible group getting indigestion from this problem. The argument that we should aid unfree book producers seems as reasonable as the argument that we should offer concessions to unfree software producers: not at all. MJR
