An 'orthodox' is a person who follows his beliefs very very strictly, 'fanatic' has a similar meaning (yeah I know those two words are sort of redundant but I just wanted to express how extreme the view appears). There is no negative connotation, in fact most 'fans' (=fanatics) or people with 'orthodox' beliefs are proud of it. Ultimately it was just a way of expressing how extreme I consider the idea that free and non-free software on the same physical media would be unacceptable to them, even if the installation procedure clearly asks the user whether to install the non-free software or not. -- Mageia ML Forum Gateway: http://mageia.linuxtech.net/forum/
