Firstly, please don't divide the community by implying that they must choose sides. There are plenty of reasonable people who don't adopt either of these labels, and base their decisions on their immediate experience. If what you're hoping is that after Sarge releases, Ubuntu developers will sweep in and upload all of the Ubuntu diffs into Debian, that simply isn't going to happen. Then, as now, the process of integrating these changes will depend primarily on Debian maintainers to drive it, just as with other development efforts in Debian. We are of course happy to provide our code (and have been doing so from the beginning), but we cannot force it into Debian. > Yes they are pros.

I think this is much easier to avoid for a smaller organization; it will become more challenging in the future. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
