Mageia is a community distro which means made by users for users.
Therefore a separate 'user' repo makes no sense at all, all Mageia repos 
are user repos.

And if you are such a freedom advocate then you should respect
freedom OF CHOICE for other users too, you don't have to install the 
non-libre software that might be in the repos or on the isos.
