You need to go talk to DWN and the anti-freedom advocates, who are the ones who run around creating these "PR disasters" you talk about.

Whining about it here won't accomplish anything; none of the people who do these stupid things are even reading this thread. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
