Somehow each new user thinks he has to start his own thread +</I>><i> about this :( +</I>><i> +</I>><i> That's why I'd like to see a basic text, explaining everything. This +</I>><i> text could be published on the website (a link on the download page +</I>><i> "What about non-free software?" leading to that text), in the forums +</I>><i> as general announcement, a link in the release notes, etc. And of +</I>><i> course a blog entry "Mageia's distribution policy about non-free +</I>><i> software". +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Then we do not have to explain it all over again and again in mails +</I>><i> and forums. Reviews will still remain the same because normal review +</I>><i> authors do not read such texts. :( +</I> +Yes, agree wholeheartedly. Any clues about exactly what states +our position accurately?
