Paragraph about Free Software in the install docs



In the install docs, the first section talks about copyrights and
software licenses. The second paragraph is:

"...
Free software doesn't mean that it doesn't have a copyright, and it
doesn't mean that the CD you buy containing this software is distributed
at no charge, it simply means that the licenses of individual programs do
not require you to pay for the privilege of copying the programs.
..."

As we all know, free software means a lot more than that for Debian
(freedom to use, modify, distribute, comercially and not comercially, ...
and so on) I think that paragraph should be modified, and perhaps include
an URL to the DFSG or OSD.
