[Tfug] Debian on the way out?

[Bowie J. Poag]

Damn straight. I mean, what the hell would you do? What would you do if 
you were threatened by a bobcat in a hovercraft?

If you shoot the bobcat, thats against the law. They're a protected 
species here in Arizona--Youre looking at a substantial fine, or maybe 
even jail time. And lets suppose you did. You shoot the bobcat, and the 
hovercraft goes out of control. Then what? Its almost better to let the 
bobcat stay at the controls and do a poor job at piloting such a vehicle 
than it would be for the vehicle to have no control at all.

The Debian team faces the same set of questions. They need to decide 
what they're going to do about hovercrafts being piloted by bobcats if 
they're going to get anywhere.

:)

Cheers,
Bowie
