I see #10 as a guideline, is a piece of advice, «follow this as
example of what we consider free».
The web points to the last GPL, not the v3. Of course, there are
differences, but the DFSG means all the GPL are DFSG-compatible. And
that BSD is as Debian see the BSD. Maybe this should be specified.
Althought I've seen that what we call the BSD the rest of the people
call it too BSD.
