Ok, sorry for the bad taste... I didn't intend personal attacks, just trying 
to grasp what someone's definition for innovation could be.

Here is what I think a debian related innovation could look like:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2006/07/msg00034.html

it is innovation because: a) it introduces new ideas, and b) get the 
successful exploitation of these new ideas.
