That's entirely not the point.
It is not about **the tool** being non-free, but the result of its use

I do hope it is primarily a free software project, instead of its primary

To some, that is the same.
If you think describing Debian as an "operating system", then for a start, you
should go and propoae to update the banner on the front page of

Dear interested contributors,
from 5th to 9th June, there will be another MiniDebConf in Hamburg, and
the Debian Edu team will again hold a sprint during that event.
For those who do not know about Debian Edu yet: Debian Edu is a pure
blend, developing a full-featured school network solution,

Hi,
I find it difficult to express my disagreement with the your views,
and your attitude, with the respect that is due to a fellow

This issue is important enough to me that I'd like to take a moment to

honest and open even when there is disagreement.
I am not judging you

You might not see many Gmail posters on Debian mailing lists, but
this is increasingly an anomaly.
Which is, at best, a serious illness.

Hi,
Free Software is meaningless without having free users, users that
aren't able to take control of their software are not free users,
they're slaves to the creators of the software.
That's what I meant. If the FSF (or Debian) says:
It is absolutely unacceptable to run non-free software
Correct. Unfortunately I haven't heard much else either. Discussions
