Well, it's not a well know page (and Google tells [0] me it's not linked at all outside of our own site) but we have in the web server a page dedicated to children distributions [1] I was wondering, however, is anyone working together with the people at these distributions? (at least those active and _not_ part of the Debian projet such as Demudi). There are quite a lot of things we could have integrated in the distribution even if the people working in them would have worked together with Debian and cooperated in including the things they have done to try to improve the core distribution. This, unfortunately, has not happened (IMHO) with some distributions which are no longer available (such as Corel or Stormix). Fortunately there are people that have contributed to the Debian distribution (Progeny). I'm currently trying to cooperate with Linex (and thus with Knoppix since they want to use its installation system) in order to bring into Debian some of the stuff they have done. However, I think that some distributions, for example Xandros, which have added some stuff which I believe Debian could use, are not actively working with Debian. How could we encourage this people to cooperate with Debian more? (if we believe, and I think we do, that their improvements to the distribution are useful) Javi PS: Of course those improvements we _can_ (or want to) include in Debian.
