This is absolutely great! I am very happy you were able to secure a
sponsorship for Dragora from a company specialized in server hosting.
Being in the same country (Argentina) and being supporters of GNU and
FSF, is even better!

Not at all, how could it be so. We only offered our help because $350
USD is a lot of money for a project so important (only independent
completely free distribution) yet so underfunded like Dragora.

Most part of these contributions to Dragora were made by an independent
project Ceata supports, GNUVideo.RO (http://gnuvideo.ro).

PS Could we maybe convince the people at GNUTRANSFER to use GNU/Linux
instead of Linux* everywhere on their website? And maybe add the GNU
logo next to Tux (Linux mascot)?
