Unhappy Free software with fedora


Don't suggest me to post this at the fedora official forum
I'm new to fedora. Really I'm a sidux user (Debian sid kde) that love GNU/FSF projects.
I ask there (fedora official) what is the reason fedora isn't recommended by FSF even it http://www.linux.com/articles/60555 wanted to move to free software only repository.
What is the actual situation?
My thread was deleted from the forum even I just had one post reply.
Why??????????????????????????????????
Anyway, I looking for an answer to the first question.

Isn't this a fedora forum?
It isn't the official forum, of course, but I think is read by fedora user, not only system administrators...

Yes, this is the Fedora section of this forum.

Again:

Why not ask FSF? It was their call and not Fedora's.

What Fedora official forum? As far as I know their is no official Fedora forum.

We can't help you with the reasons for your post being removed from another forum.

As for FSF "not recommending Fedora":
1. What is the exact language of what they say? (provide a link)
2. Why would it matter what they recommend? I don't recommend Fedora, and I'll bet that doesn't bother you....
