"Funnily enough, the only distributions I tend to refuse to touch are
the 'technical' ones, so I've never run Debian, because as far as I'm
concerned, the whole and only point of a distribution is to make it easy
to install (so that I can then get to the part I care about, namely the
kernel), so Debian or one of the 'compile everything by hand' ones
simply weren't interesting to me." -- Linus Torvalds at
http://www.apcmag.com/node/7012
So what about the following release goal: "Installing and using the
distribution should be so easy that even Linus Torvalds can use it". ;)
Not that I seriously doubt that Debian did great improvements in this
area, but maybe at another level ("marketing", "brainshare", ...) we are
not there, yet.
