If nothing else, Etch's official release serves as a milestone of sorts. SJVN derides this, yet the impetus of this new release of the *original* GNU/Linux distribution somehow did indeed affect him enough to write his Linux-Watch piece.
Note that according to the DistroWatch.com HitsPerDay, the official Debian Etch release has been out just half-a-week and yet already Debian is #2 on the 7-day H.P.D. ranking, with SJVN's "community Linuxes of the future" at numbers 5 and 6 respectively.
FYI as something of a purist, it would really be "community Linux *distros* of the future", not "community *Linuxes* of the future" as SJVN mistakenly writes at the conclusion of his piece. |
