By finding the key. We were approaching a 1 in 10 probability of
finding the key. If we won against the Linux group, it would have
created the perception that Debian would work against Linux if it
profited Debian. That's not a good perception to have. I have already
sent my apologies to the Linux team for the entire project.

        Thanks
