Yes.  My view is just that I didn't go to all the trouble of switching to
a software libre platform after 10 years on MSWormOS, to just go back to
running proprietary-ware once again.  If I wanted proprietary-ware, I
wouldn't have bothered making the switch.

OTOH, I can see how that sort of personal view wouldn' work so well for a
distribution created by a business, tho for the Debians of the world it
might be fine.

As far as catching it after the freeze..  that's a good reason to leave it
as is, I agree!  <g>
