OK, fair enough.

I actually don't see it as being at odds with grace, I just think this is 
something that should be discussed. If the Debian social contract is indeed 
the way to bring God the most glory, then by all means let us do it. If it is 
not, then let us find what will. I do not mean to take pot shots at the 
Debian social contract, merely foster discussion about what our purpose is 
and the best ways that we can go about achieving that purpose.
