Some individuals within the Debian project expressed concerns about it during the consultation process, before the licence was released, sure. That was the point of the consultation process. But here's the log of the bug that caused GPLv3 to be added to common-licenses in base-files in 2007, less than two months after GPLv3 was released, which indicates that it had already been accepted into the archive by the group ("ftpmaster") that makes routine determinations about whether licences meet the DFSG: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=431176 -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org]
