It's fairly plain to me: 1. Debian - this part at least we all agree on, and should be obvious to users. 2. Integrated - as distinct from non-integrated solutions, and this is the *norm* for Debian-based things. People take Debian, they modify it to solve a problem, and then the result is something that is not Debian itself, but Debian+some third-party material that may or may not play well with the rest of Debian. Are you saying most users don't know what integrated means or understand the distinction we're trying to make? 3. Solutions - the language requires *some* noun here. Distributions is not suitable for reasons already discussed. Why not "solutions"? What is produced out of Debian is produced to solve the problems of a particular subset of users. I think it's a very apt term and sounds way better than "Things". :) Got any better alternatives?
