Bug#474745: please dont enable non-free by default



control: severity -1 important
control: retitle -1 debian-edu-config: please dont enable non-free by default

Hi,

we enable non-free by default. This is not only a policy violation but
also mostly useless today, the main usecase is to install
(intel|amd64)-microcode. 

That said, we dont even install these packages by default, so not
enabling non-free (and contrib) is a no-op change. (This is also the
reason for the "important" severity of this bug.)

We should just make sure to document in the manual how to enable it and
how to install those microcode packages…
