>other distributions release more often,

Fedora's release and version lifecycle surely is not without opposing opinions either.

>innovate more and have more users than Debian does. Also, somehow, those distributions seem to get more credit.

Have users, get credit and innovate. Pick two - you can't have all four. Something in that direction.. ;-)

>In this context, Stefano asked: is Debian still better, and is it still relevant? His answer was "yes" on both counts.

Better: yes, ∃x : D > x. (corbet, when's UTF input support coming?)
Relevant: yes, it's still being copied into another standalone distro.

∃ would be ∃, the line was obviously supposed to read

Better: yes, ∃x : D > x

and i hope my attempt to publish this will not fail, too. Preview looks good though. :) Still I cannot understand the comment. oh well.
