OK, I don't want to be an arse here, but I have to ask. Is this "directive" coming in any official capacity? If so, which one? If not - where do you have problems with people pointing out Linux in the news? The story is directly related to the rise of Linux in Corporate Australia - something I, for one, am happy to read. Are we restricting SLUG to the "Can only ask questions if you mention Debian at least twice" list?
