FWIW, I don't mind the apparently slower pace of Debian development. What
I *really* like about Debian is how well thought out it is and how solid
it is. If you sacrifice quality for getting things out the door faster,
then one of my main reasons for having switched to Debian disappears.
Perhaps the public relations efforts should stress this part of the picture.
