Service != support. Debian and Debian systems like the BTS are there to support users and to support Debian, that's clear in the Social Contract but that does not mean that Debian provides a contractual service of any kind. Support is one thing but all such support comes from volunteers and there is no "customer service", no "service contract", no warranties, no guarantees. Volunteers do what they can in their own free time. There's no room there for formal services to users or anyone else. If you want a service contract, find a GNU/Linux distribution capable of supplying one, it is not Debian. Debian exists to support users, not enter a service contract with users. http://www.debian.org/social_contract -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
