One week with Debian

,----[ Quote ]
| I’ve been using Debian for a week now and other than the surprisingly slow 
| installation and no nice restricted-manager helping you with driver 
| installation, I’m quite comfortable with it. There’s some stuff from Ubuntu 
| which I miss (like command-not-found), but nothing big, and having testing, 
| unstable and experimental to get newer packages from is cool. I still prefer 
| Ubuntu, but it’s good to know that if something ever happens to it (just 
| purely theoretically) I could live with Debian; and, in any case, I’ll keep 
| this installation around (it only takes up 6GB, so there’s no reason to 
| remove it once I get Ubuntu running fine again).

Meta-cycles: 2-3 year major cycles for free software?

| In conversations with Steve
| McIntyre, the current Debian Project Leader, we’ve identified an interesting
| opportunity to collaborate. Debian is aiming for an 18 month cycle, which
| would put their next release around October 2010, which would be the same
| time as the Ubuntu 10.10 release.

The Difference Between Debian and Ubuntu (part 1)

,----[ Quote ]
| Since Ubuntu showed up on the scene many people have asked what the
| differences between the Debian based distribution and Debian GNU/Linux
| actually are. Ubuntu as most of you know is very much like Debian in many
| ways from the package system to the user community Debian and Ubuntu have
| done a great job coinciding.
