Yes.  I said, see the quote.  Not the interpretation.  If you see the
quote, you can tell us how you interpret it. It might also be a useful
exercise   to look at how other distributions interpret it as well.   What
does add-on software mean?   If you want to get a official interpretation,
talk to whoever is supposedly trying to revise it now.
