Debian Linux Needs Your Help

[ Thanks to Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols for this link. ]

"What he'd like from developers is "pretty easy: Fix rc-bugs, take care, that the fixed packages are migrated to "Lenny," do upgrade tests, document problems in the release-notes. Pretty simple, isn't it?" Well, it is if you're a Linux developer, but otherwise, not really.

"However, Reichle-Schmehl continued, "Even as a "simple user" (aren't we all just users?) you may help getting "Lenny" released." Specifically, he suggests that if you're already running Debian 4, Etch, "you could consider upgrading to "Lenny" and see, if everything works fine.""
