And free software above the needs of our users neither. And exactly this is what it is all about: find a way to satisfy BOTH priorities, not just one. As long as there is no working alternative to shipping firmwares in main, removing them is simply wrong. working together with upstream and the vendors to fix the issue is what we should do, not ripping the blobs aout of the kernel and forgetting about their existence. Guess which Distribution users who "made a poor buying choice" will not use again. Best regards Frederik Schueler -- ENOSIG
