8 As a user, I think it would be really cool if there was a requirement
9 that all infra and infra-adjacent stuff was free software.

11 I feel like I've read that Debian already has something like this. While
12 doing some quick searches I didn't find a full-on requirement, but all
13 their infra bits I did find were powered by free software. The most
14 relevant ones being buildd [1] and debci [2]. Additionally, the debci
15 docs has inctructions on reproducing tests yourself [3] which is a nice
16 extra IMO.
