6 Reasons Everyone Should Try Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| In response to some of the comments I received on a previous article, and to 
| show that while I don’t use Ubuntu, I do support it, here are six reasons 
| everyone should at least try Ubuntu.  
|
| 1. Descendant of Debian
|
| Though not my favorite distro, there’s no denying the fact that Debian is one 
| of the greats. The project was started in 1993, and has enjoyed continued 
| success since then. This longevity stands as a testament to the quality of 
| work that goes into the distro which spills over into each release of Ubuntu.

75 minutes to close a bug

,----[ Quote ]
| Today at 11:04am (GMT, or Greenwich Time), Debian developer Erich Schubert 
| reported about a bug in Serendipity. According to his blog, it took him 10 
| minutes to close it, and he reported it to the guys over at Serendipity.  
| 
| And at 12:09pm (GMT), another Debian developer named Thijs Kinkhorst had 
| uploaded a corrected version from upstream to Debian unstable, and he already 
| found out that Sarge and Etch were not affected.
