I do not believe Debian should be distributing such software. It rightly fails the DFSG. For some users (for instance, a business) it is actually less free than something without source (such as Netscape 4.7). The no discrimination clause in DFSG is an important one. Debian must be equally Free for all. -- John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
