And my email was what?
Anyway, until I'm a DD the best I can do is propose a proposal anyway,
and hope someone takes it up.
I hereby propose, for some DD propose:
---
The Debian logo{, and all other non-free parts of the Debian website
listed here, if there are any} are licensed according to the GNU GPL
{LGPL|X|?} license.
---
This would allow a .deb of the site, to easily allow local mirrors to be
readily set up (for example).
Sorry if that proposed proposal is not in its ideal form. It's the best
I could do given my experience.
BTW, thanks,
Zenaan
