If the problem was Debian policies, there are already quite a bunch of Debian based distros. Why another distro? The solution is _not_ to make new distributions.
And if none of them did the job? I thought F/OSS was about choice. You know, if you don't like something, you can develop it your own way.
I'd much rather have the money spent on Debian than wasted on Ubuntu, which will be another UserLinux, Corel, Knoppix and whatnot.
We will see. So far, Ubuntu gained momentum/hype that those distros never managed to get. I wouldn't count it out already, especially if Debian innovations and release cycles are not getting better.
