</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; As much as the reverse, it all depends on what you tell to people
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; about
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; the repository, what they expect and what you prefer to highlight. 
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> That's exactly why I suggested earlier in this thread that we need an

Instead of moving stuff in non-free, you move them in non-free +
tainted. That just bring more headaches, and more complexity.

That's not a solution.
