I don't understand you. I precisely said that the Debian Documentation Project mandates free (DFSG-free) documentations? <http://www.debian.org/~elphick/ddp/docpolicy.html>
Or do you refer to non-DDP documentations? In that case, we have no choice, they have the licence of upstream. We package them, possibly in non-free, that's all.
