I should also say, more concretely, that the winning option explicitly
says that this portion of the GR is a project statement on issues of the
day.  The implication, in my view, is that this is our opinion today.  If
something changes (such as a team coming forward saying "hey, we want to
maintain a free installer"), our opinion may chnage.  It's not a technical
decision or a delegate override, and we don't need to hold another GR to
change our minds.

(This is one of the reasons why I prefer to have every GR clearly state
what part of the constitution it's operating under.)
