KDE in Debian: suggestion for resolution
Can we have a debian maintainer maintain KDE packages for KDE for
distribution by KDE and _not_ by any debian ftp sites, or CD's.
The maintainer (perhaps S. Kulow) can make it clear that he is not
acting as part of debian.
Then:
Packages are available.
KDE takes responsibility for legal problems, not debian.
KDE loses the benefit of the BTS, but that is not too high a
price, I think.
I'd suggest saying that it is for protection from legal prosecution and
leave it at that. Without the faulty license, KDE would just be another
piece of non-free software.
