DEHB-ee-un would presumably rhyme with "day bay soon", right? (Just kidding.) DEHB: rhymes with EBB or WEB. ee: rhymes with BEE or SEA. un: rhymes with FUN or SON. Emphasis on DEHB, which is why it's in all uppercase. DEHB ee un. Debian. Hopefully that is reasonably clear and unambiguous to anyone whose English is good enough to cope with most of the messages on this list. > Guess what we have an international agreed upon phonetical alphabet for. Perhaps I'm misremembering, but the "internationally agreed-upon phonetic alphabet" isn't perfectly expressible in 7-bit ASCII, is it? <sarcasm> Besides, in accordance with current American foreign policy, I pay no attention to all these "international agreements" that foreigners try to impose on me. </sarcasm> Craig -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
