As long as the DSC continues to state that use of non-free packages are supported, I'd be very surprised if the FSF would ever add Debian to the free distribution list. If this is important to us (and I'm not suggesting anything either way), I expect this point on the social contract must be changed. In any case, it seems that this will be clarified soon enough. -Adam
