Thanks for your kind words :) Should you wish to contribute back, you could: Install and enable the popularity-contest package on your servers. This helps us determine which packages are actually used. http://popcon.debian.org/README http://popcon.debian.org/FAQ Install the devscripts package on your servers, regularly run the rc-alert, wnpp-alert and manpage-alert scripts and get involved in fixing single issues as you have time. Install the debsecan package, read the resulting mails about security issues on your servers and get involved in fixing them.

Re: Logo violation
[Alain Belkadi] > Maybe not the right place to send this info but someone is using the > Debian Logo on a film festival website. Thanks for the report. As already noted, that logo is "open-use", you can use it for pretty much anything. Beyond that, it is an unfortunate fact that our open logo is _very_ similar to a custom brush shape shipped in Adobe Photoshop. (Our logo was chosen in a public contest; I suspect if anyone had noticed this when we chose the logo, we would have disqualified it.) The Photoshop brush probably explains many instances of "borrowing": other people incorporate the same Photoshop brush into their own graphic designs and logos. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Appreciation
Hi, I would like to just say thanks for creating such an awesome OS! I have used Debian for years as a server. I know that I can count on it to be up and running with minor maintenance for many years! It has been stable, reliable, and I have been able to count on it working. I much appreciate this; I can proudly run my Debian servers without worry. Cheers, ~Lewis
Re: Logo violation
just for the information: it is ok to use debian openlogo for any purpose -- it is under open license http://www.debian.org/logos/ it is just that copyright needs to be mentioned somewhere I guess. as for trademark infringement , the Debian openlogo itself is not trademarked IIRC so once again could be used for any commercial product as long as the word Debian (trademarked) doesn't appear.
