Part 1. DFSG-freeness of the GNU Free Documentation License 1.2

  Please mark with an "X" the item that most closely approximates your
  opinion.  Mark only one.

  [   ]  The GNU Free Documentation License, version 1.2, as published
         by the Free Software Foundation, is not a license compatible
         with the Debian Free Software Guidelines.  Works under this
         license would require significant additional permission
         statements from the copyright holder(s) for a work under this
         license to be considered Free Software and thus eligible for
         inclusion in the Debian OS.

  [   ]  The GNU Free Documentation License, version 1.2, as published
         by the Free Software Foundation, is a license compatible
         with the Debian Free Software Guidelines.  In general, works
         under this license would require no additional permission
         statements from the copyright holder(s) for a work under this
         license to be considered Free Software and thus eligible for
         inclusion in the Debian OS.

  [ X ]  The GNU Free Documentation License, version 1.2, as published
         by the Free Software Foundation, can be a license compatible
         with the Debian Free Software Guidelines, but only if certain
         restrictions stated in the license are not exercised by the
         copyright holder with respect to a given work.  Works under
         this license will have to be scrutinized on a case-by-case
         basis for us to determine whether the work can be be considered
         Free Software and thus eligible for inclusion in the Debian OS.

  [   ]  None of the above statements approximates my opinion.

Part 2. Status of Respondent

  Please mark with an "X" the following item only if it is true.

         Constitution as of the date on this survey.
