It might be due to my natural attitude, which forbids me from spitting
into the same plate I have been eating until 2 minutes ago, but I
can't say that I ever felt so bad in the Debian community, until maybe

Debian has made a massive contribution to the Free Software community,
and we shouldn't forget that without Debian we would not be here.
