Ubuntu should explain what Free Software is and why it is so important. We could for example :

- print Free Software on Ubuntu CDs sent by Shipit
- list the 4 freedoms of Free Software in an attractive and good looking screen during installation ;
- add an item in System menu : About Free Software with more detailed information ;

I work with April, a french speeking organisation aimed to promote and protect Free Software. We have a group looking for and creating resources (texts, images, movies) to explain what Free Software is and what it is so important (sensibilisation in french) :
http://wiki.april.org/phpwiki/index.php/Sensibilisation

For example, why have the following documents in French :
http://www.expolibre.org/
http://www.apitux.org/index.php?2006/07/07/170-flyer-libre
http://www.livretdulibre.org/

Of course it needs to be translated and adapted.

Another reference is http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/philosophy.html

Thanks for your interest.
Thanks a lot for Ubuntu.
