I recently sat down with Andreas Girardet, who is a key developer for Yoper, to dispell all the rumors and discuss the direction in which the Yoper project is headed.'

    "Right now I am with IBM, and in my spare time I work on Yoper."

    Watch out. IBM might own your thoughts. Make sure you don't think about Yoper at work.

    Yes, it's totally reasonable for someone to beef up a server in anticipation of a third party putting a link up on slashdot. This is because Yoper stands for I CAN SEE THE FUTURE AND ANTICIPATE THE ACTIONS OF ANONYMOUS THIRD PARTIES![*]

    OT: You just made my day. There is a plethora of Linux 'redistros' in Spain, a lot of them based on Debian.

    Someone needs to invent Debian El Cid Campeador; bleeding edge Debian for Spaniards.
