And "integrated solution", some marketing phrase without any meaning is a better name? The common user will know, what *this* is? Come on. Are you kidding me? Maybe "Custom Debian Distribution" is not fully correct [1] but it at least describes the result. The new suggested name does not have any relationship to what a CDD is and I doubt, that a user will intentionally understand, what a "Debian Integrated Solution" is. [1] However, I expect even a common user to understand the 3 words, including "distribution". *just my 2 cents* Regards, Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
