Debian vs Debian — ready…fight! Round ∞

看 slashdot 才知道 Debian 已經病入膏肓,對照過 Linux-watch 九月時的一篇報導,當時我沒怎麼留意 Debian 的新聞,還以為是一般負面新聞說 Debian 全無活力那種聽厭了的「報導」,所以就不理它;現在重新找來一看才知是另一回事。

Quoting from Matthew East:
The way to control who translates what in Rosetta is to control membership of the translation team.
