Maintainer's resignation highlights problems in Debian project (Linux.com)

Linux.com covers the resignation of Matthew Garrett from the Debian project. "The resignation of Matthew Garrett, one of the most active developers in Debian, has drawn attention to some ongoing issues about how the project operates. Specifically, Garrett's announcement on his blog cites a lack of civility and a slowness in decision-making, and compares Debian unfavorably to Ubuntu, the Debian-derived distribution which is increasingly attracting the efforts of many Debian maintainers."
