[GNU-linux-libre] help with hosting and testing, Lunar GNU+Linux
Hi I started Musix GNU+Linux 8 or 9 years ago, we did it fine and we are still on the road. But, today, I am writing this mail for another reason: the Argentine "Conectar Igualdad"; 3,500,000 notebooks distributed with Windows and GNU/Linux, first with Rxart GNU/Linux, then Ubuntu and Mint, and finally the state created a distro itself, called Huayra . Huayra is no more than a privatized Debian with 30 non-free packages and other things, cosmetics and programs (assistants) to help newbies. Then I remastered (a must) this distro removing all proprietary software. Anyone would like to donate us FTP space to upload the ISO that weighs 2.6 GB? Then we would climb the sources, ...and we need TESTING (in fact, it would be nice to be 100% sure that there is no propietary software still on the distro (we called it "Lunar GNU+Linux")). I want you to be aware that it is a massive plan for adoption of free software in the education of a country, perhaps the bigger plan that has been done so far. So it is important that students and teachers have a 100% free alternative to huayra.
