Debian - adaptable for any purpose? Developed by about 1000 volunteers Flexible, not bound on commercial interest Strict rules (policy) glue all things together Common interest of each individual developer to get the best operating system for himself Developers have children in real life or work in the field of medicine etc. In contrast to employees of companies every single Debian developer has the freedom and ability to realize his vision Do-O-Cracy = "The doer decides"
