Its been awhile, but IIRC our legal counsel ruled that it was sufficient
for firmware files to be freely redistributable and that the license be
distributed with the package per Debian policy.

This bug was originally about getting Intel to change the conditions of
the ipw2x00 EULA such that it met the criteria neccesary for inclusion
in the linux-firmware package. I believe it now does. So, no, I'm not
really interested in reopening this bug.
