    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    It’s hard to imagine what the world would be without the likes of Debian.

    Not only is Debian a popular Linux distribution itself but it’s also the foundation for Ubuntu and so all the rebuilds like Linux Mint and a great many more.

    Officially founded by Ian Murdock on August 16th, 1993 with this classic announcement — how time flies huh?

    This might make some readers feel old: I was only 5 years old when that announcement was made.

    Here’s to the next 30 years of a wonderful Linux distribution, may it have many more.

    Feel free to get all nostalgic and share your stories in the comments.
