"not-for-profit" is usually related to an activity, "nonprofit" to an
organization. It does not dilute the meaning, it is the meaning.

Are they part of the community already (above), or they have an extra
step to join? :)

</I>
Remember these are small, quick & distracting screens (the user is
waiting for the system to be ready). So the info on each of these has
to be big, short and obvious to read.

Don't mention it at all. It's not the place. And the guy is installing
Mageia already.
(btw, speaking of a sound scheme, a "wake up" sound event at the end
of the install process could be nice => Mageia 3)
