It's relatively easy to say what is and is not GPL compatible. It's hard and often a source of controversy what is free software. And "generally accepted" are not words that are well liked in a license. If Debian accepts it as Free, does that make it generally accepted? What about the Open Source group? What if a license goes from being generally accepted to not generally accepted?
