quoting Harry [in reply to John]:

i use blag 30001 [1]. fedora core 3 derived. i *highly* recommend it. explicitly
activist, media and politics oriented. one cd install. ix86 architecture only
unfortunately.

one of the reasons i like blag is that it is 'proper' free also. and a good
arms-length from fedora.

the community is small but lively and helpful and has overlap other than me on
this list.
