While that might alert some user to do some extra checks when they're
using it, I don't think that is the correct answer. The code itself is
free and thus can be, as we stand today, distributed and altered
according to our own guidelines.
With the input I got so far, and some thoughts about it, I think it
should be included in Debian main. Arbitrary placing otherwise free
software into the non-free section doesn't win us, or our users, much
here. At least as far as I understand the situation with software
patents.
Cheers,
Sven
