What is gNewSense?

gNewSense is a fully free software GNU/Linux distribution. Free software is software that respects your freedom. You can use it without restrictive licenses, make copies for your friends, school or business. To use free software is to make a political and ethical choice asserting your rights to learn and to share what you learn with others.

It is built by people across the globe who work together as a community. We are open and anyone is welcome to join.
