[Tfug] Debian struggling with security

[Matthew Eskes]

No, its not an easy switch from Debian to Ubuntu or vise versa, however, I 
like Ubuntu because to me, its Debian without the bullshit, and yes, 
adminning is the same as it is on Debian.

i read the articles but don't have an opinion on how secure debian is.
 i am curious
what tfuggers think about whether ubuntu increases or
reduces security over debian.

i found the vehemence of the
pro-ubuntu crowd surprising.  i wonder if ubuntu has
developed critical mass to supersede vanilla debian, or
if that's even possible.  i presume you can't
easily switch back ior forth, but that
admin is nearly identical.

i'll bet a bunch of you have tried both, or have an opinion on the 
inevitable
failure of any non-vanilla debian-based distro, or on why one will
succeed.  i use
vanilla, but i'd try another if it's better supported in the long term.

i.e. if vanilla is the fount from which all others spring, does that mean
it will always be the "wettest"?
