The project now has a couple of people in it who know to do PR. That doesn't
in any way mean the project is sacrificing its values to marketing. The
Debian project is still what the developers make it. If you disagree with a
direction the project is taking, become a developer and do something about
it (see http://www.debian.org/devel/help).
