In fact, aren't a lot of Debian's developers also Ubuntu devs? I feel similarly about corporate endeavors generally but I really think Ubuntu is on a good track with its, "always free," and, "humanity toward others," philosophies. Is Libranet a corporate Linux? I understood it to be a father and son operation. Libra Computer Systems Ltd. Limited liability company or corporate? It's Canadian so I don't know. Cybe R.
