One that is 100% free and one that is, at least, > legally distributable. 1. We removed all not distributable blobs during the last freeze. 2. The remaining ones are either distributable in main, or in the firmware-nonfree package. If you think one of the remaining firmwares is licensed in a way not acceptable for main, please send in tested patches against the driver in linux-2.6 fixing it to request the firmware from userland, and the needed patch for firmware-nonfree with the corresponding counterpart.
