I must agree with Jim. From the stand-point that Debian is losing developers to other Linux platforms and architecture specialists are giving their favorite hardware OpSys preferences I personally feel this is a "fork in the road" for Debian overall. Observational participation for Debian within LCC is perferred as non-participation may be construed as "bad mannered" whereas complete, wide ranging, participation will likely result in Debian being viewed as "just another Distro with in a sea of Linux". Debian, IMHO, has always set itselt apart. Sure, their may be internal issues, but any Distro in-motion, especially one such as Debian, will have growth related problems. -- WC -Sx- Jones http://insecurity.org/
