Part of the point of the DFSG is that everything in Official Debian (TM) is free to redistribute pretty much without restriction. Non-free contains, among other things, software that you can't charge money for to redistribute or software that can't be used "commercially"; it's easier for CD vendors to categorically exclude non-free (including Netscape) than to go through on a package-by-package basis and include the things that are legal to distribute. Note that non-US is different from non-free, and there do exist CD images which contain non-US on them. I don't know details on this, though. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting. Politicking should be illegal." -- Abra Mitchell
