> Debian-Jr, Debian-Med, Debian-Edu, Debian-Np, Debian-Lex Is there a single place where all official Custom Debian Distributions (CDDs - even a reasonable TLA), aka internal projects, are listed?

Actually, it feels to me like we've come to a rough concensus on Custom Debian Distribution. There is agreement a single term is a good thing, perhaps with sub-definitions. No one (unless I missed it) has proposed a better name that hasn't had problems pointed out. I think. > For instance we have defined a term "Package Pools" and everybody now > knows what we are talking about ... Exactly. It comes down to people using it. How would one go about creating a common location for pointers to all of these CDDs? Then, it's up to the projects to start using the term. A list would I think be very good for making cdd discussions stand out at this point - there seems to be enough traffic. But perhaps I'm wrong, I don't know. cheers zen -- Debian Enterprise: A Custom Debian Distribution: http://debian-enterprise.org/ * Homepage: http://soulsound.net/ * PGP Key: http://soulsound.net/zen.asc * Please respect the confidentiality of this email as sensibly warranted.
