Hola a todos/as Mañana se publica una nueva portada de la página web de Debian (www.debian.org).
Los archivos afectados (son varios) están en la rama new-homepage del repositorio webwml (más info en [1]). [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2020/12/msg00031.html Adjunto el archivo nuevo /intro/philosophy.wml por si alguien quiere traducirlo. Yo no creo que me ponga con este archivo hasta mañana por la mañana, enviaré el ITT cuando me ponga con él (si alguien lo coge antes, que envíe el ITT, y el RFR antes de mañana 17 de diciembre a las 12h (que será más o menos cuando me ponga yo con ello). Gracias y saludos -- Laura Arjona Reina https://wiki.debian.org/LauraArjona

This operating system that we have created is called <strong>Debian</strong>. <p>An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. At the core of an operating system is the kernel. The kernel is the most fundamental program on the computer and does all the basic housekeeping and lets you start other programs. <p>Debian systems currently use the <a href="https://www.kernel.org/";>Linux</a> kernel or the <a href="https://www.freebsd.org/";>FreeBSD</a> kernel. Linux is a piece of software started by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Torvalds";>Linus Torvalds</a> and supported by thousands of programmers worldwide. FreeBSD is an operating system including a kernel and other software. <p>However, work is in progress to provide Debian for other kernels, primarily for <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd.html";>the Hurd</a>. The Hurd is a collection of servers that run on top of a microkernel (such as Mach) to implement different features. The Hurd is free software produced by the <a href="https://www.gnu.org/";>GNU project</a>. <p>A large part of the basic tools that fill out the operating system come from the <a href="https://www.gnu.org/";>GNU project</a>; hence the names: GNU/Linux, GNU/kFreeBSD, and GNU/Hurd. These tools are also free. <p>Of course, the thing that people want is application software: programs to help them get what they want to do done, from editing documents to running a business to playing games to writing more software. Debian comes with over <packages_in_stable> <a href="$(DISTRIB)/packages">packages</a> (precompiled software that is bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine), a package manager (APT), and other utilities that make it possible to manage thousands of packages on thousands of computers as easily as installing a single application. All of it <a href="free">free</a>. </p> <p>It's a bit like a tower. At the base is the kernel. On top of that are all the basic tools. Next is all the software that you run on the computer. At the top of the tower is Debian — carefully organizing and fitting everything so it all works together. <h2>It's all <a href="free" name="free">free?</a></h2> <p>When we use the word "free", we are referring to software <strong>freedom</strong>. You can read more on <a href="free">what we mean by "free software"</a> and <a href="https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw";>what the Free Software Foundation says</a> on that subject. <p>You may be wondering: why would people spend hours of their own time to write software, carefully package it, and then <EM>give</EM> it all away? The answers are as varied as the people who contribute. Some people like to help others. Many write programs to learn more about computers. More and more people are looking for ways to avoid the inflated price of software. A growing crowd contribute as a thank you for all the great free software they've received from others. Many in academia create free software to help get the results of their research into wider use. Businesses help maintain free software so they can have a say in how it develops -- there's no quicker way to get a new feature than to implement it yourself! Of course, a lot of us just find it great fun. <p>Debian is so committed to free software that we thought it would be useful if that commitment was formalized in a written document. Thus, our <a href="$(HOME)/social_contract">Social Contract</a> was born. <p>Although Debian believes in free software, there are cases where people want or need to put non-free software on their machine. Whenever possible Debian will support this. There are even a growing number of packages whose sole job is to install non-free software into a Debian system. <h2><a name="how">How does the community work as a project?</a></h2> <p>Debian is produced by almost a thousand active developers spread <a href="$(DEVEL)/developers.loc">around the world</a> who volunteer in their spare time. Few of the developers have actually met in person. Communication is done primarily through e-mail (mailing lists at lists.debian.org) and IRC (#debian channel at irc.debian.org). </p> <p>The Debian Project has a carefully <a href="organization">organized structure</a>. For more information on how Debian looks from the inside, please feel free to browse the <a href="$(DEVEL)/">developers' corner</a>.</p> <p> The main documents explaining how the community works are the following: <ul> <li><a href="$(DEVEL)/constitution">The Debian Constitution</li> <li><a href="../social_contract">The Social Contract and the Free Software Guidelines</li> <li><a href="diversity">The Diversity Statement</li> <li><a href="../code_of_conduct">The Code of Conduct</li> <li><a href="../doc/developers-reference/">The Developer's Reference</li> <li><a href="../doc/debian-policy/">The Debian Policy</li> </ul> <h2><a name="history">How'd it all get started?</a></h2> <p>Debian was begun in August 1993 by Ian Murdock, as a new distribution which would be made openly, in the spirit of Linux and GNU. Debian was meant to be carefully and conscientiously put together, and to be maintained and supported with similar care. It started as a small, tightly-knit group of Free Software hackers, and gradually grew to become a large, well-organized community of developers and users. See <a href="$(DOC)/manuals/project-history/">the detailed history</a>. <p>Since many people have asked, Debian is pronounced /ˈde.bi.ən/. It comes from the names of the creator of Debian, Ian Murdock, and his wife, Debra.
