And what about using something called Debian? Is that a "good name" or a "commercially feasible name"? Perhaps you have that impression due to being used to it, but "Debian" sounds slighly funny in other languages too and can be used for jokes (for instance, in Portuguese). If I cared about names, I wouldn't have discovered some great free software (and that's not to mention the recursive acronyms). And I have not even started with word plays/puns in original Unix commands. Unix *is* indeed a culture/life style that may be strange to others used to other paradigms. Just my 2 cents, Rogério Brito. -- Learn to quote e-mails decently at: http://pub.tsn.dk/how-to-quote.php http://learn.to/quote http://www.xs4all.nl/~sbpoley/toppost.htm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
