Additionally, whether the DFSG should apply to documentation in Debian
is not relevant to the survey, which asks whether the GFDL complies
with the DFSG: we can deal with the insanity of whether this software
over here is or is not software later, but figuring out whether the
GFDL is a DFSG-free licence for software is also important.  That's
what the survey's asking about.
