Why is it such a bad thing to beat the Linux group? The whole idea is to increase the awareness of Debian Linux - when people see we're in the number 2 slot or even number 1, we'll have good publicity. I cannot see anything wrong with running under Debian - from a business point of view, if people don't hear of us and our popularity then we won't be open to such things and donations of powerful workstations and ports etc. This is a *bad* idea IMO. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
