Altough I would agree that Storm have problems,at least they DO
provide the canadian mirror for debian. ftp.ca.debian.org is
ftp.stormix.com .Also I've seen a couple of posts from a stormix
developer on debian-devel so at least they do give something
back(for example netscape is now maintained for Debian by a Stormix
developer) and they do have all the updates on the
ftp server,so you don't have to download the whole iso .
Well,let's hope they'll keep improving the distro and work out the
bugs.:-)
IMHO the existing bugs were mostly related to the fact that potato took
a looong time to beeing released and basically everybody was sick and
tired of waiting for it to be perfect(I've ran potato fro more than a
year,same like basically everybody else).Even Debian.:-) As far as I
remember potato was released with about 20 RC bugs open and a corrupted
iso image.
Oh,well time to "upgrade " to woody (experimental testing) soon.
