How so? In my GR proposal, there are three options, and none of them change the DFSG. The first of them apperars quite consensual. The only problem is that if everybody agrees that we are wasting time on over-documenting debian/copyright, why don't we change our archive policy? I think that if a DPL that agrees with that change is elected, he will have a strong position to discuss with the FTP team, and a GR will be unnecessary. The second option aims at clarifying what is the source of the Debian operating system. It is controversial. Despite it does not change our fundation documents, I think that a GR would be needed to make sure that there is a general agreement. Also, I think that GRs should be used to move forward when a choice is needed, but should be avoided when the result is to demotivate many developers. I will not push the second option if this is the case (not to mention that I think that a GR should be started only if it has good chances of being accepted).
