Hi Dylan; "non-free" is used in Debian in a technical sense to refer to software that does not mee the Debian Free Software Guidelines. In order to be included in Debian main, not only must your software be DFSG free, but it must be buildable using only DFSG free tools. Since your software only builds on Windows so far, it can't be built only with DFSG free tools. This is why I referred you to specific sections of Debian policy. In my opinion, you should also address the question of what-kind/how large of an audience your package would have. You have to remember that you are in the position of selling your package to a potential sponsor, and there are many packages and people clamouring for attention. David
