== Commitment to Correct Mistakes == The FSDG work-group, with the oversight of the FSF, shall maintain a list of software with known FSDG issues, and their commonly accepted remedies. Distros shall, at all times, heed the current recommendations on that list. In the case of contention, the issue may be reintroduced into the work-group discussions, for the purpose of re-assessment, and possibly a revision of the current recommendation.
Distros should refrain from introducing software into their repositories, for which there are known contentions regarding it's FSDG-fitness, until the issue is raised and thoroughly discussed publicly among the work-group. Once the facts and arguments are presented as clearly as possible, and people have had adequate time in which to express their opinions, the FSF agent in charge of FSDG over-sight may be consulted for an official recommendation. Pending an official recommendation, the standing consensus of the work-group should be taken as the general recommendation, with respect to that particular software; and each endorsed distro should promptly apply that recommendation to their software. Once an official recommendation is determined, it shall be added to the list of common remedies for future reference.
