Distribution quotes of the week

You might be on to something here! But the 140 char limit would really stifle my creativity when it comes to comments. I'd rather create facebook pages for every package - that way we could add karma by "liking" a package.

We could even take it a step farther and use this for marketing. Just imagine - "Play farmville with glibc next wednesday and learn about the great new features!", "gdb has shared a picture with you", "NetworkManager wants to be your friend". Oh the possibilities ...

-- Tim Flink (Thanks to James Wilkinson)

Oooh.The next [Fedora] name must be Chartreuse Bikeshed.
-- mattdm

I think one of the things that makes Debian off-putting and unwelcoming is that we're a little *too* obsessed with criticizing everyone's ideas, and what some people see as "healthy discussion" other people see as "hurtful flamewars over bike shed colors."
-- Russ Allbery

I still think we need to specify that we don't discriminate on grounds of preferred bikeshed colour.
-- Ben Hutchings

We seem to be drifting into dangerous territory here. Should we not make explicit the fact that we are willing to discuss the colour of all sheds, even those used for the storage of pots?
-- Philip Hands
