Marco, please note that non-us is orthogonal to main/contrib/non-free.
non-us is also split into main/contrib/non-free. Please browse
pandora.debian.org (the new main non-us server) to figure that out.
Debian consists only of main. That's written in policy and is true ever
since. non-us is not related to this discussion at all.
