An explanation has been added
<http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/links/links.html.diff?r1=1.28&r2=1.29&diff_format=h&cvsroot=www.gnu.org>
* OpenBSD was removed because of mpg123... Well, it cannot imagine
that it was not possible to convince OpenBSD people to replace it with
mpg321. Strange.
<http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/links/links.html.diff?r1=1.27&r2=1.28&diff_format=h&cvsroot=www.gnu.org>
* NetBSD and FreeBSD links were removed because "they have proprietary
software packages that the distribute on their respective websites".
<http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/links/links.html.diff?r1=1.26&r2=1.27&diff_format=h&cvsroot=www.gnu.org>
For NetBSD, I think that's it:
<http://www.netbsd.org/gallery/software.html>
For FreeBSD, I did not found the problem on the website.
Anyway, it's not a big surprise that *BSD refers to non-free software
since the BSD licenses permits building non-free software with their
code.
* Debian has been removed because of the non-free part.

It has been done "5 weeks, 4 days ago". I hope this has nothing to do
with the GFDL issue, which should be treated as a separated issue, if
we are not planning to start a war.
Sadly, it sounds like a divorce is near. We all have something to
loose here.
