Anthony also said that it's more important to have documentation in Debian
for important programs, under whatever license, than that the documenation
be DFSG-free.  I suppose this is consistent with his curious views about
non-free being part of Debian.  Yet he claimed to support the Social
Contract.... at least I think he did.
