RMS: Non-free programs are not officially considered "part of Debian",

programs, and their ftp server distributes them. That's why we don't
have links to their site on www.gnu.org.
GNU/LinEx is better because it does not distribute or recommend those
programs.
I don't know. I just installed vrms and checked my system:
No non-free packages installed on sirius! rms would be proud.
Until we actually go ahead and move GFDL'ed manual's to non-free.
Then, ironically, `virtual RMS' will complain that you have non-free FSF
manuals installed! :-)
I wish RMS was as concerned about free documentation as he is about free
software.
Could you elaborate a bit on that? What's the problem with the GNU
_Free_ Documentation License?
