Debian, the producers of the Debian GNU/Linux system, have created the Debian Social

Contract. The Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG) part of the contract, initially designed

as a set of commitments that we agree to abide by, has been adopted by the free software

community as the basis of the Open Source Definition.

Social Contract with the Free Software Community

1. Debian will remain 100% free

We provide the guidelines that we use to determine if a work is free in the document entitled

The Debian Free Software Guidelines. We promise that the Debian system and all its components

will be free according to these guidelines. We will support people who create or use both free and

non-free works on Debian. We will never make the system require the use of a non-free component.

2. We will give back to the free software community

When we write new components of the Debian system, we will license them in a manner consistent

with the Debian Free Software Guidelines. We will make the best system we can, so that free works

will be widely distributed and used. We will communicate things such as bug fixes, improvements

and user requests to the upstream authors of works included in our system.

3. We will not hide problems

We will keep our entire bug report database open for public view at all times. Reports that people

file online will promptly become visible to others.

4. Our priorities are our users and free software

We will be guided by the needs of our users and the free software community. We will place their

interests first in our priorities. We will support the needs of our users for operation in many different

kinds of computing environments. We will not object to non-free works that are intended to be used

on Debian systems, or attempt to charge a fee to people who create or use such works. We will

allow others to create distributions containing both the Debian system and other works, without any

fee from us. In furtherance of these goals, we will provide an integrated system of high-quality

materials with no legal restrictions that would prevent such uses of the system.

5. Works that do not meet our free software standards

We acknowledge that some of our users require the use of works that do not conform to the Debian

Free Software Guidelines. We have created contrib and non-free areas in our archive for these works.

The packages in these areas are not part of the Debian system, although they have been configured for

use with Debian. We encourage CD manufacturers to read the licenses of the packages in these areas

and determine if they can distribute the packages on their CDs. Thus, although non-free works are not

a part of Debian, we support their use and provide infrastructure for non-free packages (such as our

bug tracking system and mailing lists).

The Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG)

1. Free Redistribution

The license of a Debian component may not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software as

a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources.

The license may not require a royalty or other fee for such sale.
