 All of those named points are reducing or even worse declining the elemental freedom of the user, to learn, to modify, to share and to use for any purpose without restrictions. **Hyperbola** was and is always about essential freedom and with its goal of **technical emancipation** oriented on lightweight software and design so people can learn and fully control their system by all means. Including software-projects and packages based on them opposing this will never be done, also not just for convinience! All of those named points are reducing or even worse declining the elemental freedom of the user, to learn, to modify, to share and to use for any purpose without restrictions. **Hyperbola** was and is always about essential freedom and with its goal of **technical emancipation** oriented on lightweight software and design so people can learn and fully control their system by all means.

-<note important>We do not redefine freedom here throughout our listings. Please accept that we surely give reasoning but to reduce the listings just towards only "freedom-issue" is not working and in fact is pure demagogy. Hyperbola as project has clear reasonings offered and written down here. Asking further why on whatever kind of system package and software is available but on Hyperbola not won't work out. Please therefore read again our notes above and try to understand! If you are not okay with packages missing, please use a different system instead of Hyperbola. You can also grant a helping hand for finding a solution for the issues we have noted in our listings, we won't reject here anything. But just to await from us that we comply to awaitings from the majority is not working out. Everyone is free to have a different opinion, but any opinion is same way only that and nothing more. We have provided clear reasonings and comparisons towards our actions why we have deleted or added which kind of software, using rational facts and not only thoughts or some statement from organizations to comply with.</note>+<note important>We do not redefine freedom here throughout our listings.

Also to note: Just because a software-project is free and permissive licensed does not make it more acceptable for us. We surely acknowledge the licenses used of projects and nevertheless reject their integration because they restrict users from our perspective.</note>

The Apache Foundations does not allow generic to distribute modified versions under the same name ([[https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/faq/#may-i-distibute-modified-versions-of-apache-software-under-the-original-name|link]]), which makes it problematic to offer rebranded versions for every new release. Therefore all Apache-projects are excluded from Hyperbola.
