Hello, Under §A.4. of the Debian standard resolution procedure, I am hereby withdrawing my proposal of August 22 (Message-ID: <20060822221804.GC28755@mauritius.dodds.net>). While I still believe that this proposal represents a reasonable position for the project to take, the discussion over the past two weeks makes it clear to me that a large enough fraction of our developership disagrees strongly with this interpretation that it's not in the best interest of the project to push forward with this proposal. There are a number of other options on the table which have the same basic aim of reconciling Debian's handling of kernel firmware with the DFSG; I would encourage the seconders of this original proposal to consider seconding one of those other options rather than stepping up to be a proposer of this withdrawn proposal. Cheers, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
