The social contract of Parabola GNU/kNuBSD 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/kNuBSD 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/kNuBSD 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/kNuBSD and its community:** our community is
democratic 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/kNuBSD Philosophy:** We respect Parabola GNU/kNuBSD
Philosophy that is based of KISS/YAGNI/DRY and its
developing process.
