I agree with everything you write here. However, I suspect it'll have more impact if posted to debian-policy, not debian-user. FWIW, I've been using Potato for a couple of months now and the only problem I've had is a weirdness in slrn that I can't actually be sure has anything to do with Debian at all. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager, Dueling Modems Computer Forum <http://dm.net>
