We started discussing this on the list a few months ago, and this is expected. And we slowly started rolling this out, see http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=commercial_vendors . Nothing much, but at least it's here.

And a policy to defend the non-profit organization and the interests of Mageia as intellectual property (copyright and others) and more.

I agree, I think helping people and organizations can do many things with the free and open, including business. Perhaps there is little knowledge, doubt, fear and myths for many organizations and individuals with conflicting interests or even some not find how to adapt your business model to the FOSS / FLOSS. Well I think that little by little can be solved. So with a little humor and a reason was proposing a special day, week or month of freedom and openness
