* '''Keep'''. Still one of the few listed on FSF's website and still appearing in RMS's speeches. Apart from that there are several outstanding aspects, maybe most notably the advent of the Linux kernel's libre version containing no binary blobs, the ability to have rolling releases with bleeding-edge packages through BLAGHEAD, the FREEEEE-project, making it possible to run an EEEpc with entirely free software or the historic BLASTERISK worldwide free phone service. In my opinion it is not appropriate to call BLAG a "minor Fedora respin" because it is no just Fedora with all non-free parts removed, but also with many additional packages from independent repositories, creating a quite unique and well thought-out desktop experience and working state.
