Debian Etch moves ever closer, and Ian Murdock - the project's founder - has been interviewed about Debian's politics, its lack of strong leadership, and Ubuntu's ever-growing fame. He feels that Debian is too enveloped in process and politics, making it impossible for anybody to make big decisions, thereby hindering the pace of development. In addition, on his weblog Murdock has announced he is joining Sun.

I think the Linux world needs someone who won't release until it's *done*. Not that I'm likely to use it myself, but I can see distinct benefits to that philosophy.
I mean, maybe they could have feature freezes more often and thus release more frequently, but there would come a point where too much would be added as soon as the release happened and it was OK to move things to a 'to-be-stable' tree...
