I've had his script for a while since multistanza was set up. You can
find it attached. It compares both debian's and ubuntu's repos and
download packages which are considered free in debian but are in
ubuntu's non-free repo.

Could this discussion on vlc change subject, as it is not related to
linux kernel. A subject much like "multiverse but free repo" sounds good
to me.
