I highly suspect a flame-war here, but isn't against the "Stallmanian-principle" for a linux machines to play with those proprietary kids AT ALL. That is, debian (or any other linux) should not even consider talking with that kind of software. I'm just curious how many linux users/devs/etc maintain that position, given that I'm not one of those users. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
