This page should constitute the idea of a distribution that still is to be built, named "Black Flag Linux"

Motivation

If you look at Linux distributions, you see that many try to be free. But often they are really not. This is a problem of how you define Freedom. I think a distribution perfect for anarchist should define freedom from the anarchistic view. This in mind it should provide the following

  • provide tools to ensure our freedom
  • provide free software
  • don't use software that supports capitalistic companies
  • be organized in an anarchistic mode, not semi-democratic (Debian - a representative democracy excluding end-users) or mediocratic (Fedora)

Basis

It does not make much sense to start from scratch. So the question would be what base distribution one would choose. Possible choices
