Snes9x and Quake in main

["Eric Gillespie, Jr." <epg@pobox.com>]

According to policy, sections 2.1.2 - 2.1.4, a package goes in
non-free if it isn't DFSG free and in contrib if it depends on a
non-free package. Both snes9x and Quake are DFSG free, and
neither depend on non-free packages. Therefore, both should be in
main.

The point has been raised that neither of these packages are
useful without non-free software. Even if this were true, policy
says nothing about this, and i don't think it should. However, it
isn't true. There are free data sets for Quake, and free ROMs for
snes9x.

So why aren't these packages in main?
