If we can keep this thread going, then there will be no need to start a
new one in two weeks.

Debian politics are a pain, they may have there uses but they always
seem to go to the extremes.

Personal I've given up on stable releases from Debian.  The only place
to be is Sid/Unstable.  The core of Debian is good but dated and
suggestions are ignored or shot down.  I love the other packages for
there depth and well worn ways.  Debian is too focused on server use and
even users that use it for servers are giving up on it.

We need new smart blood at Debian to lead the way.
