See: http://mail.freesoftware.fsf.org/pipermail/mldonkey-users/2002-July/000097.html For one side, it is clear that the non-free code will never be removed. On the other, I don't see why do we want in Debian a network that is insecure by dessign in such a way that upstream keeps non-free source to keep it (temporarily) secure. this is really low quality software. so why does this RFP make sense for you? please just close it and look for a better p2p network (like freenet or gnunet) -- Robert Millan "5 years from now everyone will be running free GNU on their 200 MIPS, 64M SPARCstation-5" Andrew S.
