I sent an E-Mail to the web-site in question. They resonded thus:

"[...W]e are going to put a statement in that page menctioning as this list is from debian users mailing list.We will take care from next time we will menctioned the source from."

I thank you for all of your opinions. I realise that I take this rather too seriously. It is a fault of mine. I believe (perhaps to the point of proselytising?) that even the smallest citation should be, well, cited. Perhaps it has to do with my up-bringing? Who knows: I blame the Puritans, one way or the other. (Fascinating group of people they were. Their culture is the North-American culture of to-day. (Why in the World have I brought this up?)).

Alrighty. Thanks again and have a pleasant cup of your favourite tea.
