+<PRE>People,
+
+Now that the distro is starting, it's easier to define the course of the project. We have to make sure we're doing the right thing.
+
+Something to be discussed is whether the distro will follow the guidelines of the FSF and have only free software on it. This is something to be widely discussed: support for the Stallman's group could be very advantageous, but would sacrifice the end user experience. Proprietary software could be placed in a separate repository. Another point is that according GPL, all source code should be available.
+
+But something the distro MUST have as an option to the user - that would bring a lot of free software activists for our side - regardless of the choice to be made in relation to this requirement as is the ability to install your kernel linux-libre .
+
+Basically, linux-libre is a fork of the Linux kernel maintained by the FSF Latin America that has no binary blobs. Currently, there are very few distros that offer it.
+
+I believe he should be in the repositories or on the installation media, where the user can install a system with it by typing something like &quot;install = libre&quot; or something similar at boot time of this media. Of course, we offer regular Linux kernel as default.
+
+For more information, see: <A HREF="http://www.fsfla.org/svnwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">http://www.fsfla.org/svnwiki/selibre/linux-libre/</A>
