I remember when Christoph Lameter wrote the first packaging helper, and the number of packages skyrocketed. If I remember the numbers correctly, the package count went from 200 to 400 in a matter of a small number of months. I miss the days when I could remember what each package was for.(*) Possibly someone should set up an online quiz thing, where you're shown a package name, its short description, and three randomly chosen short descriptions, and have to guess which short description is correct. Fifty thousand packages, give or take a few, is such an awesome thing for the project to achieve. It's about six new packages per day throughout the existence of Debian.
