I'd like a few changes to this page. I'll go through them one at a time, and justify them as well.
. "We are Software In The Public Interest, producers of the Debian GNU/Linux system. This is the "social contract" we offer to the free software community." This needs to be changed to 'We are Debian, ...' or something similar. Debian != SPI, but Debian is affiliated with SPI. Also, name the soclail contract explicitly. That makes it sound more official. How about: "We are Debian, the producers of the Debian GNU/Linux system. This is the 'Debian Social Contract' which is a set of commitments that we offer to the free software community." . Split this page into three pages, a page stating what the social contract and DFSG are, and then one page for each of the documents. This is important because it establishes each as a separate document, and also because as Open Source grows we want to be able to point people explicitly and directly to the DFSG. [I know that this will take a lot of redoing of links to the DFSG, but I think that it it important to split the pages... sorry!] . Please add (to the page for the social contract and the DFSG) a notice at the bottom stating that "Other organizations to derive from and build on this document. Please give credit to the Debian project if you do." This is a request from Bruce Perens, the author of the documents. Apparently this used to be on the page, but disappeared at some point during the rewrite. Thanks, Nils.
