There's been several long threads concerning Ubuntu of late. One has
dealt mostly with Ubuntu using/rebuilding Debian packages for
inclusion into their o/s and centered mostly on the maintainer
field. Some Debian package maintainers were/are being named as the
maintainers in Ubuntu when the packages had been rebuilt by Ubuntu.
Out of all the Debian derivatives Ubuntu seems to be getting the
most attention and seems to be pretty PR intensive. Additionally, quite a
few of the Debian developers are also for-pay Ubuntu developers.

That's why I asked if any of the Debian users here had been
following along at home and had an opinion as I imagine it would be
completely uninteresting to anyone else. :)

Kind Regards,

That's easy to fix, but I can't be bothered.
