Because I believe in free (insert my definition :) software and want to contribute to it. Steve, forgive me for giving you a brief response. However, I believe that I have justified my beliefs concerning the DFSG throughout the course of this thread and rather hoped that this thread had ended. Free thought is good thing, not a bad thing. Just because I joined Debian doesn't mean that I should have to abandon my opinions. I will abide by the DFSG even though there are some (very few) things that I disagree with. I do agree with the spirit of the DFSG, but not all of its contents. Steve, please don't misconstrue the tone of this message. I'm not trying to snap back at you or anything of the like. I'm a big fan of Debian and only want to see it grow and succeed. One tired developer, :) -Ossama
