Alternatively, we rewrite the DFSG2 so we can grandfather it.

This is right if the only merit to arguments against tossing the

authors haven't had sufficient time to consider the new DFSG.

[And, seeing how long it takes Debian to change something major I can
certainly see how it could take years to make a major change.]
