(Mandriva-Linux is a little and completly independant distribution. All works
from it are GPL license only, professionnal solution like Pulse too. Mandriva
have a really 100% gpl version of distribution -not bloody blob closed into
kernel-packages... And have "commercial" version, to support developpement,
where it is simple to kick-out any blob...because apart packages ;) )
Independant but ever respect "alaletter" RedHat upstream choice.
Mandriva integrate contributors works directly, not apart distro. If you are
contributor, it is very simple to have svn access and society cluster'build
full access. Club forum and documentation are provided free from charge.
