I am NOT trying to debate the decision to regard GFDL as non-free. Although I think the decision is wrong that is NOT what I am complaining about. I have said several times that, although I disagree with the decision, I am quite happy for the Debian project to make policy in the way that it has. However, then taking that decision as an action point to remove all the documentation without putting it in elsewhere is simply not good enough. And I do not accept that it is ok because it's only transitional and eventually documentation will be pushed into non-free. If that's the case why couldn't we wait for that to happen before it got removed from main? A purely political decision has been taken that substantially changed *my* user experience (and that of others I'm sure) without warning and people think that's ok? -- Nic Ferrier http://www.tapsellferrier.co.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
