Try to read once more, what I wrote -- I did not say a word _against_ X.org (I suppose, that in the next version of Debian -- I mean post-sarge -- X will be based on X.org). What I meant is that except of bitrot (which is not visible yet), it really doesn't matter that much, whether Debian is based on X.org or XFree86. > As to Gtams, no it isn't, but i've never heard of it, and no doubt > wouldn't give a rats ass for it, And?

What I like about Debian is that it is really The Universal Operating System, where even packages which clueless ignorants know nothing about are fully supported and part of the game. > And it doesn't appear to be in Debian proper either (at least > under that package name) - so it's most probably housed on an external > non Debian repository.

Try http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=gtams&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all it leads to http://packages.debian.org/testing/x11/gtamsanalyzer.app. I have no idea, why it is not called GTams (as on tamsys.sf.net/gtams, which is a home of upstream). >> If you are so proud Libranet user, then why you are bitching in Debian >> list?

I bet not, And your point is? Debian doesn't require donations and what I do for open source software is none of your business (however, try to search my name on Google or Google Groups, I did for free software more than bitching about bad Debian).
