No, I keep that in mind. But not being part of Debian is not at odds with supporting it using the project's resources (SC #5), so I don't see what the problem is. The only consequence is that you can't refer to the result as "Debian" because of SC #1. But SC #4 can be more than satisfied with that. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
