We altered the social contract precisely because not everyone agrees with that statement. I agree that everything in Debian should be held to the terms of the DFSG, and I agree that software is a better term than most others to describe non-executable strings of bits. Others disagree. But that's not an argument we have to have again, because the social contract no longer includes the word "software" in point 1. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED]
