I'm redirecting this thread to d-project... You and I tend to think
about money very much DebConf-wise (specially in the March-July period
;-) ), but I think this is going away from the current d-vote
topic. Please reply to this message to d-project only.

Dear Wouter, Gergely and Stefano,
one of the conditions for a work to be considered free is to allow others to
use it without making contribution back to the original authors (even if we
