I could not stay silent anymore and commented on the DFSG v2 issues. I feel Debian is getting run over by fanatics. Where is the Debian rejected the close association with the FSF so that contrib and non-free could exist for the benefit of our users? Why is the license of the bloody firmware of any importance? Don't these people understand that a lot of what they consider hardware has been software for a long time? Will they demand that intel GPL's the microcode of the pentium IV soon? At least Marco D'Itri seems to have the correct idea. I know I should be out there, arguing without end in debian-legal and stuff, but I just do not have the time or energy to waste on their illusions.
Am I turing into Erik Naggum?

Debian can have me as a developer when becoming a Debian developer is "less of a hassle" and there's less politics in Debian. I'm afraid that means "never" (I probably should've gotten on the train ages ago, shouldn't I).
