Something to fix on the Debian "children distro" page
Hi there --
I'm not sure this is the right place to send this e-mail, and if it
isn't, I'm hoping that you can forward it to whomever can fix this.
On your Software Distributions Based on Debian page here:
http://www.debian.org/misc/children-distros
CrunchBang is not listed as one of your "children," and I think it
should be.
I copied Philip Newborough, the lead developer of CrunchBang, on this
e-mail because he might be able to give specifics on the history. Since
I started using CrunchBang in mid-2011, CrunchBang has been based on
Debian, after starting out a couple of years before that as an
Ubuntu-based distro (Philip would have the exact date, if you need it).
I don't have specifics, but I know many in the wider CrunchBang
community contribute to, and participate in, Debian, and in my opinion
(not to mention observing statements in the CrunchBang forums) it is a
source of pride that CrunchBang is part of the Debian family.
I would be willing to help write a paragraph if necessary to fix this
page to include CrunchBang. The "About CrunchBang" site is at:
http://crunchbang.org/about/
Thank you for your time and attention to this issue.
