My comment was about claiming "not distributable". That was simply not

I think tides are shifting and Debian may be seeing some common sense
prevail. Thanks to ubuntu perhaps, or solar flares...

In short - I just wanted to make sure that we do not make the insane
Debian policies somehow official git ones.

Good clarification anyway :-)
