This all being said, if someone ever did propose the German solution on nonfree images, I'd have to think very carefully over whether I'd be for or against. It would be nice to have a totally free project (and if one can build software that way, one can build an encyclopedia that way), but a few articles would suffer greatly. In the meantime, though, we should quit passing ourselves off as "free" (at least the libre sense of free), when we're not. We can certainly decide what we want the project to be, but in the meantime we should not be dishonest about what it is, and it is currently only gratis-free.
If we only distribute free content (not sure if this is the case) then we are "free" - we just happen to have a web portal containing non free content too.
