I have noticed a bit of complaining that FPC is being unfair in keeping
Chromium out of the distribution, or that we're not evenly applying the
bundled library policy.  I would like to make it clear that without an
active package review and anyone actually submitting an exception
request to FPC relating to that package review, FPC hasn't applied any
policy at all.  FPC has never even had the chance to consider the
issue.  I can't speak for how this would be received by FPC because
I simply don't have enough information.  The discussion in this thread
hasn't really been about the actual bundling.
