    1. I personally think Debian is too strict. I know Red Eclipse is in their non-Free repository because they miss GIMP/etc. files for artwork...

    2. accepting free software but not free art is wrong for the same reason i want VLC to be free even tho i don't develop it

    3. because changing it should be my right whether i choose to exercise it or not (no i'm not 100% WRT software or art, but i'm working on it)

    4. @zykotick9 did anyone give you the impression it's not possible to get a wholly Free install out of the partially-Free Debian repos?!?

    5. @zykotick9 see, that's where the difference between using (choosing only Free) and recommending (with bundled non-Free) is

    6. @zykotick9 you can keep !debian 100% free, right? I wish the !fsf change his mind...

      1. @pertutatis of course. debian is 100% free by default, you have to make it non-free.

    8. @zykotick9 ISTR !FSF saying that !Debian is OK for users who understand software freedom, but not OK to recommend to those new to !FS.
