"So UnitedLinux will remain an open-source project?
Absolutely. The only difference is that the UnitedLinux binaries will not
freely distributed. People will be able to download the source code and
compile their own binaries, but they will not be able to use the
UnitedLinux brand."

Or is this saying you can compile and redistribute UnitedLinux, but you
can't call it UnitedLinux?

I have read all through their site and found nothing about not using
GPL/LGPL.

This sounds like a really good idea.
