Imported debian.org Mailing Lists[Ed. note: It seems as if there are assholes everywhere.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Cease and desist orders" for distributing Debian is a prank Currently the case of an alleged "cease and desist order" received by a German Debian user is causing quite a stir. In a faked lawyer's letter the user was accused of violating the rights of a Dutch company by distributing the Debian operating system via bittorrent. It has now turned out that the "cease and desist order" was a bad prank, and that the accusation as well as the Dutch company were made up. Parallel investigations by the Debian Project had also resulted in the conclusion that the Debian Project doesn't and never did distribute any works of the (imaginary) Dutch company. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome to our 2011 Debian Google Summer of Code students!
