do you mean the default source.list after installation? Does the sarge
installer also not ask the user if he want to include non-free? Then i
would say it is definitely a step forward.

But i doesn't mean the default source.list in my message above.
I mean something like "I have accidentally deleted my source.list, can you
tell me how a normal Debian GNU/Linux source list looks?" This kind of
question were answered to 99% in Debian or GNU/Linux user forums with
source.list entries which contain contrib and non-free just because for
the most users non-free is part of the Debian OS, as i have explained in
my above message more detailed.
