| The Debian project is pleased to announce 
| the fifth update of its stable 
| distribution Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 
| (codename "lenny"). This update mainly 
| adds corrections for security problems to 
| the stable release, along with a few 
| adjustment to serious problems.

we want you for Squeeze artwork

,----[ Quote ]
| You might have heard that Debian is 
| closing up on the forthcoming Squeeze 
| release. In its aim to be "universal", 
| Debian addresses several different kinds 
| of users and Squeeze will be no exception. 
| For several users, and in particular for 
| desktop users, artworks do matter and 
| initiatives like the one started by 
| Valessio Brito are likely to improve their 
| user experience.

Debian vs. Ubuntu: Contrasting Philosophies

,----[ Quote ]
| Debian and Ubuntu are distributions that
| lend themselves naturally to comparison.
| Not only is Ubuntu a continuing fork of
| Debian, but many of its developers also
| work on Debian.
|
| Even more important, you sometimes hear the
| suggestion that Ubuntu is a beginner's
| distribution, and that users might consider
| migrating to Debian when they gain
| experience.
|
| However, like many popular conceptions, the
| common characterizations of Debian and
| Ubuntu are only partially true. Debian's
| reputation as an expert's distribution is
| partly based on its state a decade ago,
| although it does provide more scope for
| hands-on management if that is what you
| want. Similarly, while Ubuntu has always
| emphasized usability, like any distro, much
| of its usability comes from the software
| that it includes -- software that is just
| as much a part of Debian as of Ubuntu.
