Dunc-Tank To Help Meet Debian Etch Deadline

Da Massive writes, "Debian GNU/Linux is experimenting with a new project called Dunc-Tank, which is aimed at securing funding to pay two key release managers — Steve Langasek and Andi Barth — in an effort to ensure the forthcoming Debian 4.0, known as etch, is released on time in December." Dunc-Tank is not affiliated with the Debian Project directly, and in fact was controversial on the debian-private list.

    I told you it's the animal names that speed up the release process!!! Anyway it's good to see debain following ubuntu's 'adjective animal' release model.
