And so we come full circle. Debian Jr. was called a subproject initially. We decided we needed a better name back then because Debian is full of subprojects, not all of which are "thingy1": http://wiki.debian.org/CDDNamingProposals#head-28e0bfc23ab009f3ecb4e464e56e81f4009033b8 Perhaps we need listed on this page examples of subprojects that are in Debian that are *not* thingy1 (and don't fall in the categories thingy2 or thingy3) since there seems to be some confusion here. Have a look at: http://www.us.debian.org/devel/ Notice the "projects" listed there that are not on the shorter list of CDDs beneath it. I am quite opposed to just going back to "Debian subprojects" because then we lose the distinction altogether that we're trying to make. The idea that when you set out to make a "Debian-derived distribution", if you follow the CDD approach, you and your users are much better off is very hard to express if you don't have a name for the alternative.
