It can be freely modified +and improved by its users and members of the community of this system. +The spirit of this system is summarized in a manifesto. + +To me, this does not fully explain the use of "free" in the context of +Mandriva/Magia. This topic (free as in beer/free as in freedom) is +always one of much debate in any FOSS community. I propose: + +Mandriva Linux is an operating system based primarily on Open Source +code and licensed in a way to provide users and developers with +greater freedom than proprietary, restricted code. It can be modified +and improved by its users and members of the community of this system. +The spirit of this system is summarized in a manifesto. + +Nice job otherwise, although it could be more concise since it's +supposed to be an introductory page.
