If Ubuntu makes GNUbuntu completely free (as in freedom), and uses separate repositories, I intend to use it. It would be a bit ridiculous to use a redistribution that changes nothing but the artwork just so I can say they don't separately distribute proprietary software. That's just needlessly fragmenting the community. However, for now gNewSense is definitely my best free option and I am very grateful for it.
