I don't care one way or another if it puts Ubuntu out of business (or Canonical, as it were), but I want Debian to provide a top-notch desktop experience for Debian's sake. Deferring to Ubuntu for this work is the worst sort of defeatist nonsense and I will not to bow to it. I like collaborating with the Ubuntu people, but I refuse to compromise my own work or Debian as a project just so that they can excel. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
