I'm curious in what way you feel the Ubuntu project leeches off of
Debian? I thought they just took a Debian snapshot, tweaked it
to their preference, and released it (similar to what all distros
do with their component packages)?

Do you feel this is harmful to Debian in some way?

Curious, thanks.

Check Debian mailings lists. There have been extensive threads about this
issue last year, so you'll be able to satisfy your curiosity with hours
and hours of reading straight from the horse's mouth. This discussion is
really not a good place to start another thread on the topic.

Different words

The poster said "leaching", not "leeching".
