Oh, I have overlooked it. Thank you for your feedback.
I'd been just convinced that "I should fix it" at that time.

Hmm,

1. hal-flash itself is evil, so not acceptable for debian
2. there is no problem hal-flash itself, but not acceptable for debian
   because it helps playback of DRM contents

I guess that the concern is derived from 2., is it correct?

If so, something like hal-compat software exists, (it also provides HAL
 compatibility layer which is similar to hal-flash, but it does not
 refer about flash DRM at all even though mainly used for it) - 
does it acceptable for debian or not? I don't know well.

Should I stop ITP process at once?
