Well - Debian is the preferred GNU/Linux distribution of the FSF - by rms' words. As can be seen from the cooperation of the FSF with Debian on the Debian GNU/Hurd project the connection is actually a bit closer - but you are right - possibly not close enough to be 'official'. I'd better be careful in using this word in the future :) btw - I guess nobody on this list will infer RedHat Means Source blah if he sees rms somewhere - capitalized or not... Cheers Detlev
