 Sometimes a program is free software in itself but depends on a
 non-free platform in order to run.  For instance, many Java programs
-depend on the parts of Sun's Java implementation which are not yet
-free software, and won't run on the GNU Java Compiler (which does not
-yet have all the features) or won't run with the GNU Java libraries.
-We hope this particular problem will be gone in a few months, when Sun
-makes the standard Java libraries free software, but of course the

-Some free programs encourage the use of non-free software.  A typical
-example is @command{mplayer}.  It is free software in itself, and the
-free code can handle some kinds of files.  However, @command{mplayer}
-recommends use of non-free codecs for other kinds of files, and users

+a program is to promote the other programs it needs.  This is why we
+are careful about listing Java programs in the Free Software
+Directory: we don't want to promote the non-free Java libraries.
+
+We hope this particular problem with Java will be gone by and by, as
+we replace the remaining non-free standard Java libraries with free
+software, but the general principle will remain the same: don't
+recommend, promote or legitimize programs that depend on non-free
+software to run.
+
+Some free programs strongly encourage the use of non-free software.  A
+typical example is @command{mplayer}.  It is free software in itself,
+and the free code can handle some kinds of files.  However,

+files, and users that install @command{mplayer} are very likely to
+install those codecs along with it.  To recommend @command{mplayer}
+is, in effect, to promote use of the non-free codecs.
+
+Thus, you should not recommend programs that strongly encourage the
+use of non-free software.  This is why we do not list
+@command{mplayer} in the Free Software Directory.
 
 A GNU package should not refer the user to any non-free documentation
 for free software.  Free documentation that can be included in free
 operating systems is essential for completing the GNU system, or any
-free operating system, so it is a major focus of the GNU Project; to
-recommend use of documentation that we are not allowed to use in GNU
-would weaken the impetus for the community to produce documentation
-that we can include.  So GNU packages should never recommend non-free
+free operating system, so encouraging it is a priority; to recommend
+use of documentation that we are not allowed to include undermines the
+impetus for the community to produce documentation that we can
+include.  So GNU packages should never recommend non-free
 documentation.
 
 By contrast, it is ok to refer to journal articles and textbooks in
 the comments of a program for explanation of how it functions, even
-though they be non-free.  This is because we don't include such things
-in the GNU system even if we are allowed to---they are outside the
-scope of an operating system project.
