This discussion is about bringing Debian and the FSF closer together. As
the DPL, Stefano talked about what Debian can do. If the outcome of this
discussion is that the FSF can do something as well, and they'd be happy
to do it, then why shouldn't they? I'd feel bad if this discussion comes
down to (or is interpreted as) the FSF making demands and Debian doing
all the work/compromising to fulfill them.
