Ok, that's fine with me. I just posted my additional entries from
/etc/apt/sources.list. However, it would be nice if I didn't get 3 mails
per week from people asking me how they can fulfil tomcat4's JDK
dependency (even if this is mentioned in the package description)...

JRE 1.3 and Acrobat reader have been part of Knoppix for a long time,
even the CD edition. So unless Klaus has removed them, there is still
non-free software on Knoppix. It's not that I like this, but there are
no fully viable free alternatives. :-(
