Bit of a climb-down.

Debian has never targeted itself as an "enterprise" distribution.
And having used RHEL (extensively) and SuSE (some) I have to say I'm
glad.  I don't think Debian's current users and developers want it
to be like that anyway.

I really do not see Debian taking any sort of major popularity hit
from this and I only see it being used as the base of more and more
offshoot distributions.

I am on a LOT of Linux lists and while I see the odd bit of concern
what I am mostly seeing is people saying things like "man this
really sucked, but I use Ubuntu anyway and don't want to change."

Cheers,
Andy
