And the members of the project who have an interest in such matters are, by definition, the ones that subscribe to -legal. Continually trying to make out that an open subscription mailing list is some form of cabal, and that it is somehow in opposition to the rest of the project, is the stuff we'd expect of one of Terekhov's more delusional conspiracy theories. No matter how much you try to set them up in opposition to each other, the Debian mailing lists are divided by *topic*, nothing more. Matters relating to the DFSG are quite clearly on-topic for -legal, rather than one of the catch-all lists. This is not some government organisation, where decisions are handed out to different committees. This is a system for classifying discussions to make it easier to find the ones you're interested in. Anybody with an interest and a reasonable grasp of English can participate. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
