| What I would really like to see is binary compatibility between Debian
| and Ubuntu. So far, that seems to be mostly the case, but it is more a
| coincidence of freeze dates than a feature.

Given that Ubuntu's toolchain people are also Debian's toolchain
people and we (the ubuntu developers) try to have the smallest delta
possible with Debian, I doubt we'll see much diversion in the future
either.  Even Debian and RH try to stay somewhat binary compatible.
