No worries. I'm a fan of the DXX-Rebirth project too (sent the lead dev a postcard a while back - he collects them), but the license Parallax Software released the Descent code under was certainly a disappointment. > Question: does do Debian packages in their "main" repository always > meet the FSF guidelines? AFAIK the DFSG are stricter than the FSF's guidelines (you see some GFDL docs in non-free - such as gcc-4.7-doc for example), so I would assume so for any stable release - starting with Wheezy at least. I recall older versions of Debian (Squeeze maybe?) didn't extract non-free blobs from the Linux kernel, and the kernel was still in main AFAIR, so this hasn't always been true. Cheers, Adam
