Hello,
My name is Shintaro Shinozaki who is lead developer of GdNewHat project.
We are currently maintaining GNU/Linux-libre system distribution and RPM
repositories without non-free packages. So, we would like to join
gnu-linux-libre community and request endorsement. If you have a time,
please give us some advice. Thank you.

Project description:
GdNewHat Project aim to develop and distribute fully free
GNU[1]/Linux-libre[2] system distribution based on free software
community's accomplishments. We are always following a free system
distribution guideline[3], making an attempt to remove non-free
components such as non-free firmware[4], driver, software and document
or replace them with free ones from our software repository and system
distribution wherever possible.
GdNewHat system is running on binary-blob (non-free firmware, driver)
free GNU Linux-libre kernel that is maintained by FSF Latin America[5]
instead of official linux kernel[6]. So, some hardware may not enough
function or may be unsupported in a lot of cases. However, you can make
completely clean computer system with only free software without
restrictive licenses if you use it.
Contained packages are released under free software licenses
individually. Please read each packages's manuals or licenses list[7]
for more detail if necessary.
