They depend on the presence of appropriate and properly functioning devices, which are typically implemented using non-free firmware. That's very different. Consider the parallel to AIM clients: we allow AIM clients, but not AIM clients that have to have a user-provided CD with the server code on it, and transmit the server code to AOL's machines! -Brian -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
