For example, Ubuntu makes several fantastic desktop set up. What I would personally like to see is a merging of distributions kind of like the idea behind the DCC, where everything has a base of Debian all packages are compatible, but each distribution has their own share of tweaks that make it better for their target audience. Hopefully the Freespire project also contributes more back into the core of Debian. But with Debian and Ubuntu both working on the core of the Debian family, it’ll benefit all. They have slackened their requirements on being a developer after Sarge, so Etch is leaps and bounds above that (more so to me it seems than the change from Woody to Sarge was) but I think that introduces more bugs. This also made Debian the most stable distribution out there (at least in my experience). Since most of Ubuntu’s work goes back into Debian anyhow, this is just kind of a shift of a developer from working through the Debian mail lists to the Ubuntu ones.įor a long time, Debian was so slow to make releases because they were so strict on who could become an official developer. From what I can gather, it sounds as if he’s leaving Debian’s mailing lists behind and just working on Ubuntu.
