Hi, Following to Mo Zhou's thread of Conda and Debian, it reminds me that, could Debian reduced into a "proof of concept" as an operating system with collection of apps and things composed of completely free software, as more and more software repositories are moving away from the free software repositories like Debian, and userland repositories and app containers becomes more prominent and easier to access. I feel the fear when I was in a flatpak session in DebConf17. It can be a "solid base" of container images and barebone systems, but the days are numbered as operating systems as free and focused on its mission (like Google COOS, Yocto, Alpine etc.) is evolving steady. Could it be a disaster for us? And more importantly, do users care? Best regards, Yao Wei
