pro-1 is indeed just the status quo, this is also why i prefer the separate vote. > In summary, since these issues are orthogonal, I'd rather vote > separately. Now, the question is, on which do we vote first, or can we have two votes together ? Also, we could cross-product them : [ ] non-free belongs in non-free + exception for etch (don+fs) [ ] non-free belongs in non-free + delay etch (don only) [ ] make a longer-term exception for non-free firmware in main (josselin). (since 3 is a superset of frederiks's proposal, doing josselin+fs is not warranted). This means a re-writing of the proposals, as well as new seconds and stuff though.
