Where? Branden seems to believe that anything that Debian packages is
software, for the purposes of the DFSG. A number of people would argue
that small, nonfunctional invariant bits are okay, but anything more
isn't. And you, and another group of people, see to think that Debian
should distribute non-software that doesn't have to modifieable. Where's
the rough consensus?

True. Probably better let it all pass for woody, like we did for KDE in
the distant past.
