No, I don't think this GR would take us greatly to our goal. In <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, on "Sat, 30 Sep 2000 16:14:12 +0100 (BST)", with "Re: Non-Constitutional Voting Procedure", Matthew Vernon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I think that we should not remove the non-free archive, even when it has no packages. The empty archive will show the fact that we will not need any non-free software at all to the world, when our goal is achieved. So, if you believe a specific software in non-free archive is of no use now, then feel free to file a report to that package and ftp.debian.org in order to get rid of that software. But removing non-free archive is not the way to go. It will just show the Debian project does not have faith on the free softwares, because it means we don't believe that the free softwares can provide eventually all the functions which is provided now by non-free softwares, and that the Debian project think that the non-free archive will not be empty forever. -- Taketoshi Sano: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
