It is not the "right" word for it, it is a *different* word, which changes the scope of the resolution. The GR I've proposed does not excuse non-free firmware in general, it only states that sourceless firmware is permitted. Whether you consider sourceless firmware to be non-free or not, changing "sourceless" to "non-free" is a change of scope. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
