(EG, Debian should not try to be Project Gutenberg)... Yes, that is also what we're talking about. Making, for example, Debian packages of free (usually copyright-elapsed) novels does provide added value: - easier upgrades - easier deinstallation - better integration into Debian, for example dwww's lists of documents Whether these should be part of the main Debian distribution is an open question, but note that we already have writings that aren't strictly Debian related, even though they're computer related. Anyhow, the question is pretty moot until and unless we get more of such packages. -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me.
