-The social contract of Parabola GNU/Linux-libre is a commitment of the
-distribution with the libre software community in general and its users
-in particular. It is because of this that our social contract will
-always follow the philosophy of free knowledge. All the amendments to
-this social contract must be faithful to the spirit of the [Free
-Software Movement](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software_movement).
-
-1. **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre is libre software:** it will follow the
- [GNU free system distribution
- guidelines](http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html),
- so it doesn't include or recommend proprietary software or
- documentation and it does not provide any type of support for their
- installation or execution. This includes: proprietary software,
- binary only firmware or [binary
- blobs](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_blob).
-2. **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre and other distributions:** Parabola's
- objective is to support the free software movement so we only need
- to compete against nonfree software. Parabola will strive to support
- other free software projects as best it can and any information from
- our project will be available for anybody who needs it. That
- includes our packages and repositories.
-3. **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre and its community:** our community is
- adhocratic in its essence, so the community is included whenever
- there is a need to take a decision. We encourage community
- participation in the development of the project.
-4. **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre and Arch GNU/Linux:** Parabola is the
- free version of [Arch](http://www.archlinux.org/). We provide
- repositories and installation images without any nonfree software.
- We respect Arch's KISS philosophy (Keep It Simple, Stupid) and its
- developing process. In that sense, Parabola will always maintain
- retro compatibility with Arch so as to help free already
- working installations.
