The dragora naming change to dragoraGNU and dragoraFSF gives the first impression of a GNU and FSF compliant distribution.

Why do this

Linux and GNU/Linux with a large amount of proprietary software built in, is an open source/closed source collection.

All Linux distributions can be referred to as GNU/Linux, naming change to dragoraGNU and dragoraFSF This is where the first impression is made

many people know Linux, Linux=GNU/Linux

The project is presented as "Dragora GNU/Linux-Libre" to imply that the software included in Dragora is based on GNU software plus 100% free software (free as in freedom) or compatible with freedom.

The term "Linux" may be misleading, see:

https://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html

Note that Dragora is one of the free (libre) distributions: https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html
