Momonga Linux is a Linux distribution developed in a "Bazaar" model style among its user community.
A Momonga (aka Pteromys momonga) is a flying squirrel found both in Europe and Asia. It's an animal known for a self-asserting behaviour, despite its small size.
We, at the Momonga Project, like the momonga, may be small and not well-known, but we do express ourselves without fear or favor, so hopefully a new user can feel our enthusiasm and belief from the Momonga Linux that will be released soon.
