If you really want to show that non-free and contrib are not part of the
distribution you should move them out from under "dists".

ftp...debian.org/
	debian/			# has infrastructure support
		dists/...		# DFSG free
		not-dists/...		# not DFSG free
	not-debian/		# no infrastructure support
		[1]/

Since any change is unlikely to happen before Woody, why not discuss
incorporating Hurd, BSD(?), whatever into the archive.  e.g.,

ftp...debian.org/
	gnulinux/		# has infrastructure support
		dists/...		# DFSG free
		not-dists/...		# not DFSG free
	not-gnulinux/		# no infrastructure support
		[1]/
	hurd/...
	not-hurd/...
	bsd/...
	not-bsd/...

[1] Organized by whatever results in the nost consistent layout between
entries, provided as a courtesy to Debian's users.  The installation
system has stuff that should probably live here.
