Well, as so many people on this thread I think you're throwing around
red herrings. (Hell, there's enough herring here to chop down a whole
damned forest.) I don't think I've ever seen someone complain about a
package because it's only used by children. I can't imagine a serious
argument based around that premise, and don't expect to see one. So the
heartfelt defense of the right of children's software in debian is
probably unnecessary and definately melodramatic.

Come on, people. It was a question, not a spanish inquisition.
