That link has no guidance from the FSF yet.  That bug log includes
only senior debian developers engaged in a debate about the issue.  If
FSF doesn't produce guidance there, then the decision that happens
there will only a barometer of a certain subset of debian developers.

Debian works by addressing bug reports, so specific collaboration
could help by FSF representatives filing bug reports about the
problems they see in various areas:
bugs.debian.org/www.debian.org
bugs.debian.org/bugs.debian.org
bugs.debian.org/qa.debian.org
[etc.]

Please give us specific items to consider and fix.

Thanks,
Mike
