Ok, fair enough. Let's see if I can make two small changes that will
satisfy these comments.
First, if I would insert the following reference at the end of the last
paragraph, would it properly identify the decision that is being
(partly) reverted, in your opinion?
http://release.debian.org/removing-non-free-documentation
Second, if I would add the following sentence to the end of the
last-but-one paragraph, would it make a new decision, in your opinion?
As decided by a previous General Resolution (2004-003), the
Debian Project will remove all material not judged as free in
accordance with the DFSG from the main section of its archive.
With these two changes, is the proposal clear enough in your opinion?
(Needless to say, if you do, and it gets the required seconds, that
doesn't mean you or I would vote for it.)

Could you clarify the last sentence? Do you suggest that as things stand
now, etch will release with GNU FDL material?
