I do think it is going to be better for me to deal with both organizations
using an institutional perspective. Personal perspectives seem to be
making things more difficult at the moment.

I am not asking for a quid-pro-quo on the desired changes, because it's the
wrong thing to do to both organizations. Neither Debian nor FSF
horse-trade their ethos in the interest of their relationship.

The only quid-pro-quo I am asking for is that both organizations work
responsively on the two issues. I think that both organizations are
able to justify the desired changes from their own internal perspective.
