Thanks, so once and for all the issue of Debian recommending and supporting non-free software is put to a rest. It does so, and it is intentional.
The addition of Sun Java to Debian has not been condoned. Another wild accusation without evidence.
Obviously it was condoned, it was added. As you quoted the SC yourself, non-free software is explictly part of Debian. So there was nothing really wrong with adding Sun Java to Debian, or any other non-free software that exists in the non-free group of Debian.
I expect GNU does host non-free software somewhere, but I don't know whether ftp.microsoft.com runs GNU, so I don't see the relevance of that.
Where? Where does the GNU project host non-free software? I have asked you now several times, please show me where the GNU project hosts non-free software.
No, debian does not recommend or depend on non-free software. (debian-policy s2.2.1, yet again)
From the SC: 'We acknowledge that some of our users require the use of
works that do not conform to the Debian Free Software Guidelines. We have created "contrib" and "non-free" areas in our archive for these ...'. So you are saying that the SC is violating the Debian policies or the other way around?
Anywhere where non-free software for GNU is run. Odd question.
Non-free software for GNU? What kind of software is that? Can you show concrete examples?
The CDs are debian. They are the ultimate action of the debian project.
The CD's are a method to distribute parts of Debian. You quoted the SC: 'We acknowledge that some of our users require the use of works that do not conform to the Debian Free Software Guidelines. We have created "contrib" and "non-free" areas in our archive for these ...' Clearly, non-free software is part of Debian. You cannot dispute it, you are just trying to weasle your way around by redefining things as you see fit.
I'd go on an equal rampage if the FSF started doing the same.
I somewhat doubt it, but I hope we never find out.
Why do you doubt it? Why are you on a constant basis trying to start throwing mud at me? I'm frankly sick and tired of it! Stop it!
