GNU/Linux Libre - Freed Software

Coordinating freeing efforts, usually involving GNU/Linux, across multiple projects.

Tag any related pages with [[Category:FreedSoftware]] - in addition, you probably should also link to them from text in this page.

Mailing List

Subscribe to our gnu-linux-libre@nongnu.org mailing list, which is also available via Gmane as gmane.linux.distributions.gnu-linux-libre.

IRC

Drop by #gnewsense-dev on freenode irc for the time being.

Eventually we may set up #freedsoftware or #gnu-linux-libre or something like that; if you'd like to do that, please discuss via the mailing list first.

Projects

GNU/Linux Distributions

  • BLAG Linux and GNU, a free GNU/Linux distribution based on Fedora.
  • Dragora, an independent GNU/Linux distribution based on concepts of simplicity.
  • Dynebolic, a GNU/Linux distribution, with special emphasis on audio and video editing.
  • gNewSense, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian and Ubuntu, with sponsorship from the FSF.
  • Musix GNU+Linux, a GNU+Linux distribution based on Knoppix, with special emphasis on audio production.
  • Trisquel, a GNU/Linux distribution oriented to small enterprises, domestic users and educational centers.
  • Ututo, a GNU/Linux distribution based on Gentoo. It was the first fully free GNU/Linux system recognized by the GNU Project.

Linux Distributions

Mozilla Distributions

  • GNUzilla and IceCat - Gnuzilla is the GNU version of the Mozilla suite, and GNU IceCat is the GNU version of the Firefox browser. Its main advantage is an ethical one: it is entirely free software.
