Debian Pure Blends

Debian Pure Blends
[Distributions] Posted Nov 10, 2008 14:58 UTC (Mon) by corbet

The Debian Project has announced "Debian Pure Blends" - essentially a rebranding of the concept formerly known as "custom Debian distributions." "We realised that the old name Custom Debian Distributions just sended the wrong message to outsiders: The conclusion that CDDs are something else than Debian was too 'obvious' if people did not read the relevant documentation." It looks a lot like Fedora's "Spins," but without the worry about what deserves to be called a "Pure Blend" and what does not. More information can be found on the wiki and in this detailed paper.
