Well, it does summarize pretty well:

1/ says the Debian Project does not object to the experiment and it is not
the result of a decision of the Debian Project

2/ says it doesn't endorse nor support any projects Mr Towns may lead or
participate in outside Debian

Pretty much the same. The only difference is that 1/ wishes success
to Dunc Tank, which makes Debian look nice with it.

Agreed.
