Hi, The resolution that passed is: ,----[ Release Etch even with kernel firmware issues ] | 1. We affirm that our Priorities are our users and the free software | community (Social Contract #4); | | 2. We acknowledge that there is a lot of progress in the kernel | firmware issue; however, it is not yet finally sorted out; | | 3. We assure the community that there will be no regressions in the | progress made for freedom in the kernel distributed by Debian | relative to the Sarge release in Etch | | 4. We give priority to the timely release of Etch over sorting every | bit out; for this reason, we will treat removal of sourceless | firmware as a best-effort process, and deliver firmware in udebs | as long as it is necessary for installation (like all udebs), and | firmware included in the kernel itself as part of Debian Etch, as | long as we are legally allowed to do so, and the firmware is | distributed upstream under a license that complies with the DFSG. `---- manoj Starting results calculation at Sun Oct 15 00:02:08 2006 Option 1 "Release Etch even with kernel firmware issues" Option 2 "Special exception to DFSG 2 for firmware as long as required [3:1]" Option 3 "Further Discussion" In the following table, tally[row x][col y] represents the votes that option x received over option y.
