I would love the same for Debian and I believe many others would too.
So the question on everybody's minds:
Why did you start another distribution? Wouldn't it be more productive to
build on the already-existing Debian base? You could make use of all the
existing resources, developers that would help etc. and minimize duplicated
effort.
note: It is not my intention to start a flame-war.
