What do you exactly mean by that? I can imagine at least two different interpretations of it: 1) Having different CD image sets: some sets containing only free firmware, some others containing also the non-free firmware (It seems that you meant this one, but notice that it will induce a new choice point in the current CD creation work-flow.) 2) Having the non-free firmware in the regular CD image sets; firmware which is not loaded by default, but that can be selectively enabled by the user, pretty much as users can now enable "non-free" in sources.list to get non-free packages from the "Internet media" (to be compared with the "CD media"). Let's first clarify the options, so that we can have a more fruitful flame fest on them later on :) Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -o- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.
