HP works with several commercial Linux distributors to help meet the needs and desires of HP customers. Events like signing new business agreements routinely make the news. However, these events do not imply anything about HP's relationship with Debian. Personally, I have to say that during and since my tenure as Debian Project Leader, the support from my management at HP to spend time working on things Debian and to travel to various places to talk about Debian has been outstanding. HP has shipped products based on Debian, and will continue to do so when it makes good business sense. HP also sells and supports various commercial Linux distributions when and where that makes good business sense. It's not an either/or thing at all... Bdale
