I demand that you retract this slanderous remark. It may be the case that
the kernel packages are never brought into compliance with the DFSG *as
currently written*, or *as you would like them to be interpreted*, but I
would not be spending my time on this discussion if I didn't think it
mattered to bring the kernel packages in line with the DFSG.
