Debian is not about open-source software... it's about free software!
"Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer."... "it comes with over 15490 packages"
And from a strict point-of-view "free" means with no restriction induced by someone not putting his hands into the real stuff. At least as far has I understand it. And in that regard, I can see a subordination link when salaries or grants are introduced as they force the recipient to report to someone out of the turf. If some debian developpers are feeling like me, I can see a problem with Dunc Tank strategy.
