Does anyone know why gobuntu isn't on the list of FSF-approved GNU/Linux distributions?
I note at Gnuherds, one of FSF's ventures, this text:
Gobuntu is Almost-Free Software. Although Gobuntu's stated policy is to adhere to the Free Software Foundations four freedoms, it presently installs Firefox, which encourages installing non-free plugins. Gobuntu enables downloading of non-free software packages from its archives, and the use of the ubuntu.com domain promotes non-free software.
