We are talking about the new CD layout of SUSE 10.1. For 10.1 there will
be no "SUSE Linux OSS" anymore. Just SUSE Linux {Retail, Download DVD
including CD6, CD version}. Only the last version is our topic here, as
somebody has to decide, if the purpose of this CD is for user's sake of
*legally* copying, distributing, and using his version, or if it's for
OSI-compliance sake, for the user's you mentioned as not wanting to have
any non-OSI software.
Please also note, that this is not a GPL topic, as most software outside
kernel, gcc and GNU has a different license. However, except pine all of
them seem to be OSI-compliant.
So today, the problem is just small, pine here or there. But it really
should be discussed "What, actually is the goal of CD6?" to prevent
future problems.
Ciao
