Hi all,
What am I doing wrong?
I want to get the BLAG9001 distro, I went throught the links from distrowatch end ended up with a login screen for the ftp site.
Anonymous did not work, so I registered for this forum on blagblagblag org.
Now I can login into this forum but still don't have an access to the ftp site.
I thought that distro is free, so how can I get it?

blag 90001 is a bit old but you can load it there: http://www.blagblagblag.org/download/index.html
It works!

Please see how to configure repo: http://forums.blagblagblag.org/viewtopic.php?t=5093

But better is to try 119k beta and help us.
You can try it there: ftp://blag.fsf.org/119000/en/iso/
For now it works with f12 repositories.
You may 'blagify' it with this blag icons theme: ftp://blag.fsf.org/really-little-guys

And finish by using icecat web browser that will be blag default browser in the future: ftp://blag.fsf.org/Icecat/

We'll help you there on the forum or on blag IRC: irc.indymedia.org channel: #blag

Also, the next version of BLAG (120k, and then 130k) is still in the works. I'm a bit behind schedule because of stuff, but it's coming:)

Thanks for the link, I'm doing a test install right now. I'm a total noob, it's the first time I'm trying to use your distro. Everything runs smooth so far.
