&gt;&gt; Dear Mageia folks,<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; I believe getting FSF support for Mageia would be a huge boost for our<br>
&gt;&gt; distro. Also there is no major distro in the list of FSF approved<br>
&gt;&gt; distributions, yet. We could be the first major/established distro<br>
&gt;&gt; (well we have the legacy from Mandrake days) there. We are very close<br>
&gt;&gt; already, I believe we have to let go of only non-free firmware from<br>
&gt;&gt; the kernel.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Here is the FSF guidelines<br>
&gt;&gt; <a href="http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html" target="_blank">http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html</a><br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Can we commit to these guidelines?<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Thanks<br>
