I disagree. You already had that discussion and the discussion went
nowhere because the situation is not as clear cut as those 2 mails seem to
indicate.
You don't have a consensus within the TC.
I believe the only viable way to go forward is to redefine contrib in
clearer terms and as it seems to be quite a political issue, I suggest
to go for a GR to settle the issue once for all.
(And no I don't want to reopen the discussion to know if we need a free
NDIS driver or not to make ndiswrapper a *DFSG free software* acceptable for
main)
