Bearfruit

We created a new banner for Debian’s birthday. At 15 years they’re one of the oldest distros still in active usage. What has made Debian unique is that its maintainers are passionate about two things - free software and the OSS philosophy and also about technical excelence. Debian is the foundation of Ubuntu so of course we’d have to do something to celebrate their birthday. The banner itself was created by Kenneth Wimer. I took it and overlaid it onto an existing Ubuntu banner so that it looked more like a real banner hung up over a doorway like you might do for a birthday party.

Oddly enough, the night before I put the banner up I had this crazy dream that a bunch of Debian developers were chasing me shouting about LZW compression algorithm patents and I was trying to justify myself by pointing out that the patent expired and that LZW was ok now. It’s always funny when you wake up remembering your dreams.

If you have no clue what I’m talking about that you haven’t looked closely enough or you just aren’t clever. Sorry. :-/ If you do get it then be sure to post a comment here so I know.
