Software freedom is not about money. For more information, see the GNU web site (www.gnu.ai.mit.edu). Further discussion about this flammable issue should probably be taken off the Debian lists. For Debian, the freedom is base requirement, see below, and not open for discussion. If you feel that proprietary software should be an important part of the distribution, you might want to look at some of the other distributions. > What I would like to know is the Debian mission statement, its meaning > and purpose. The Debian FAQ, answer to question 2.1: Debian GNU/Linux is the result of a volunteer effort to create a free, high-quality Unix-compatible operating system, complete with a suite of applications. The "free" here has to do with freedom, not price. -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me. Please don't Cc: me when replying to my message on a mailing list.
