+      Most peripherals have microcontroller running non-free
+      firmware; some require host to load it
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Several drivers used to include firmware, making kernel
+      non-free.  Fudged with GRs for a while; finally fixed in squeeze
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Users with these devices - almost any wifi card, some network
+      controllers and Radeon GPUs - will still need the firmware
+      files installed
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Kernel team maintains <tt>firmware-nonfree</tt> source package
+      covering most firmware files that are clearly redistributable
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Also collected in linux-firmware.git repository maintained by
+      David Woodhouse and myself
