No. I agree with you, and actually proposed a General Resolution 8
years ago to get rid of non-free software:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2000/06/msg00549.html
http://www.debian.org/vote/2000/vote_0008
It was never voted on because the project secretary disappeared, if
memory serves.
There was also a vote in 2004 on a different resolution:
http://www.debian.org/vote/2004/vote_002
I guess this means that it's about time for another once-every-4-years
vote :-)
