Bug#48045: debian-policy: non-US is a misnomer



Package: debian-policy
Version: 2.5.0.0

non-US is not a good name for the non-US (ahem) part of the archive. It's not
only non-US, it's also (for example) non-France. And when/if the US stops with
the silly crypto export laws, the name will be even more obviously fake.

I thought about naming it 'crypto', but it would also not describe it correctly
(since we also have packages encumbered by other silly laws there, like
software patents). Any ideas?
