With the avowed goal of providing a completely free distribution - one 
without non-free kernel binary 'blobs' or any other non-free software, 
the Free Software Foundation has announced sponsorship of the project. 
Ted Teah, FSF's free software directory maintainer explained, 'With all 
the kernel firmware and restricted repositories removed, and the 
reliance on Ubuntu's proprietary distribution management tool Launchpad 
gone, this distribution is the most advanced GNU/Linux distribution that 
has a commitment to be 100% free.

Perhaps they haven't heard of Fedora?
