Unfortunately I don't have a credit card... But maby there is another way? Anyway I'm willing to buy myself official stable Etch release to contribute to the Debian project.

Above is a few threads from google, if you need more just do a group
search for dunc-tank should fill your hearties content.
Below is a few blogs that talk about it, if that is your thing.
http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?hl=en&q=dunc-tank&btnG=Search+Blogs
Of course this is all found with google tools, if you haven't tried
some of those tools give them a try. Most of the time after using
a few of these tools, I get to the point of information overload.
I think I am about spent, my mind will be mush mig no fi

Dunc-Tank
Hi Before I start I want to state that I don't want to start a flame war. I have been reading about this Dunc-Tank project http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS7543606709.html and I have decided to pay 40€ into the project. In the last years I have been fighting inside my institution for getting acceptance for Linux without much success. I like the Debian distribution but I have found unstable to be both the newest and most reliable part of Debian. Unfortunately I cannot convince people that are looking for a stable distribution to use that. On the other hand, the people I know that use RedHat or SuSe always seem to me to end up with very old versions of all programs with bugs that were resolved long time ago. A Debian release on time would make my work easier. Some years ago I was enthusiastic to become a Debian maintainer and learn to program properly but as the years have gone by I have found out that since I cannot support projects technically, to do something I may at least support them financially. I have also found out that many of the Linux projects are quite poor. Is there anyone out there thinking the same way I am. I suggest that those who are in support of this experiment just pay to the http://www.dunc-tank.org/ Some intelligent comments are welcome but I don't want to start an argument. Regards Gudjon
