I look at it this way: it makes sense to call the project at least 'Debian NetBSD' for obvious reasons. The discussion is about wether or not we want to add a 'GNU/'. Adding this would state that it's a major component. However, /not/ adding it would not neccesarily mean that we don't think it's a major component. Removing the 'GNU/' apparantly makes a lot of people here feel better, and I don't see why it would be a problem. Thus: one more vote to 'Debian NetBSD' (though frankly, I don't care very much. It just seems a socially more acceptable name for some of us) Just my way-too-worthless 2-euro coin, -- Arnout Engelen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gelezen in de Debian Packaging Manual: It is assumed that the reader is reasonable familiar with the dpkg System Administrators' manual. Unfortunately this manual does not yet exist.
