Developer Summit to try to improve relations between the two. He has
posted a couple of interesting messages related to this visit, the first
being the results of a survey of Debian
developers: 'The most appreciated collaboration paradigm between
Debian and Ubuntu seems to be 'mixed teams', where people from both distros
work together using some $VCS. I got report about a dozen such teams, of
varying sizes from a handful of packages to several hundreds.'
Also posted is a summary of the trip.
'To my surprise, I realized that among Ubuntu developers there are
quite some people which share our values and that acknowledge that Ubuntu
sometimes fails at them. Those people are interested in working with Debian
directly, but simply didn't realize that we do welcome their
contributions.'
