Hello all,
I am really sad to bring two sorrowful messages in one day, but I just received news that Ian Murdock, the founder of Debian, was found dead on December 28th at the age of 42.

Ian was a great guy, and started more than "just a Linux distribution". As you know, Debian repositories are used in Ubuntu, Knoppix, Mint and a variety of others. Debian's creation of a community is rivalled by none other.
Rest in peace, my son!
