...or both - I'd say -, if DEP touches both development and project.

(It's so straightforward... why instead flooding d-d-a with *drafts*?)

IMHO wiki.debian.org should, as the generic domain name suggests, be about 
somewhat random news, tips, ideas, coordination, teams stuff, and so on. 
DEPs, when agreed upon and well formalized, would be worth their own 
subdomain, of course a d.o. one.

Just my 2 ¢.

(He says to have already requested the removal of two emails from the official 
archive, sent with two different address (one is arguably his old address, 
the other isn't), both of which are different from his current email address, 
and makes again that request, claiming that a fourth address isn't currently 
his.)

(I don't now how to answer anyway.)

Also, how about a call for *brief* essays on DDs' experience of social 
aspects, issues etc. to collect together (in next months) into a book under 
some free license?

This would be interesting both inside and outside Debian, and I would be glad 
to translate it. :-) Furthermore, it could also be printed on paper, maybe 
with the official Debian logo on the front cover (maybe also signed by 
somebody ;-) ), and shipped to people who make a donation throug SPI to the 
Debian project.

U r uttrly wrong. In fact, it's 1 / ((1 + 105000 / 100) ^ 630), that is 
1/(1051^630) IMVHO.

Feel free to enjoy this truth.

She's the "Super Cow" indeed. It's almost surely a naif joke, maybe
originated on some Kuro5hin forum. The cow looks different from that of
the old famous "cowsay" [1] Perl script included in Debian since 2001
(but is this really a well-shaped cow[2]?).

I do suppose "Have you mooed today?" loosely relates to Microsoft's
"Where do you want to go today?" motto. APT (and dpkg) is in fact a
powerful tool that made Debian distribution better.

Anyway, I don't know who is the creator of APT cow and easter egg. The
CVS might help to find it!

([3] is noteworthy too...)
