I, personally, think that we must have the lesser number of GRs we
can... GRs are a quite expensive (in the sense of energy) way of dealing
with stuff...
And also, the public statement about GFDL is a natural consequence of
the first GR, so, if we do need to vote for a statement (which I doubt),
let's vote it together with the decision itself...
Like,
a) Debian thinks GFDL is non-free and will publish the following
statement...
b) Debian thinks GFDL without invariant sections is free and will
publish the following statement...
c) Debian thinks GFDL is free at all and will publish the following
statement...
d) Debian can't decide right now and will keep the things as they are
now (won't say anything, but will keep the delegate's decisions)...
I don't see a reason to split it into two GRs... And I don't think a
proposal to include it in main even being considered non-free would get
enough seconds...
What I would suggest to the project's secretary is to re-start this GR
process, as it seems too confusing by now (can it be done?)...
