Liberally snipping here, and I've only caught that portion of the discussion that's crossed over to -vote, as I'm not subscribed to -devel. Also IANADD, just a user for the past 4 years or so. John, I have one question on the paragraph below:

OK, now I'm really confused. Are you saying that you're not attempting to have non-free removed from the debian.org domain? I agree with you, that being in debian.org doesn't mean it has to be associated with the distribution. But, it almost sounds like you're agreeing, at least in principle, with Anthony Towns' proposed ammendment. Or do you mean that a non-free.debian.org would satisfy you, but being on ftp.debian.org wouldn't? It all seems like semantics to me, but if that is the view you're taking, then this might be a point of comonality to start with to get to a more meaningful discussion. Just some thoughts from an interested user, Peter Kahle
