Note that GNU's non-recommendation of Debian is quite old, and is due to the fact that Debian maintains the non-free and contrib portions of its archive. (Even though Debian's position has always been that non-free and contrib are not part of Debian proper.) Ironically, non-free is now where a lot of GFDLed document will end up. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
