Hello, Thanks for your comments. The "about Debian Project section" is intended for newcomers and for PR. At the end of each PR, it is likely to be ignored from second reading by the same one. By then, it accomplished its mission. If Debian Times is not for also publishing the PRs, where should I publish them? The attached draft contains corrections for (1) and (2). Regarding (2), it is mostly a matter of writing style and target audience. The text contains just enough details for newcomers. The wording could be improved. Regarding (3), and in light of [0] [1] [2] and face to face debates during [3], for some examples, Debian Project NEEDS more manpower and interested ones do not know how to start. How the Debian Website Redesign Project [3] is going? Read the comments at [4] for some examples. At face to face meetings, the thing is even worse... Others think Debian is a bunch of elitist geeks, with some "kings-of-the-montain" entrenched slow pacing the whole project. Ubuntu is cool. Debian is old. There are many good things happening and few are aware of them. I expect to reach at least enough repercussion to reduce [0] effects and attract some interested people. Regards.
