seperating out non-free
ok, this is how I look at the whole thing.
1> non-free should not be ditched or hidden
2> non-free does need to be seperated a bit more from main
3> non-free should not be listed by default in apt's sources.list file
4> www.debian.org should have information on how to add non-free and non-US
to one's apt/sources.list file.
One of the great things about debian is the choices to run stuff..there's
so much to chose from...non-free should not be removed for this reason..but
it should be seperated a bit more as to stress the "freeness" of Debian
GNU/Linux...
The important thing is to not hide non-free...nor ditch it. In fact
we should put up more information about it..this will give us more
opportunities to stress that it's not part of the Debian distribution
because the packages are considered non-free...
my 2 cents..
