Stable non-free and contrib (was: Bug#4378: incomplete Packages files and incomplete distributions)

Once or twice I've said that it is not discriminatory to place
a package in non-free or contrib. The quoted sentence makes me
I think I have been mistaken. Sorry.

It doesn't change my opinion, however, of what goes where in
the distribution. I wouldn't mind having stable versions of
contrib and non-free, but I'll leave the decisions to those
who are willing to do the work.

Sounds better than "put up or shut up", doesn't it? :-)
