Debian, Past Present & Future

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-spell-love-a-p-t dept.

solferino writes "Christoph Lameter, a major guru in the debian project, has put up a very well written talk that he gave earlier this week that addresses debian's past, present and future. He includes a good background history of the project, some interesting sets of figures and projections (30,000 packages by the end of 2004!), a good discussion of the pros/cons of source based distros and his ideas about a new package manager he is developing (uPM). In all a very good read, whether you are just now considering dipping a toe into the debian well-spring or have been drinking from the source for a long time already."

    It has come to my attention that a more likely series of events would be: 1. Post witless profit joke. 2. Get moderated down.
