Debian joins Desktop Linux Consortium

The Debian Project is a founding member of the Desktop Linux
Consortium (DLC) which was recently founded and will be incorporated
as a non-profit association.  A recent survey on DesktopLinux.com
indicated that Debian is the most popular GNU/Linux Distribution for
the Desktop.  The Debian Desktop sub-project is an example of our
continuing efforts to improve Debian for Desktop GNU/Linux users.

The Desktop Linux Consortium is a vendor-neutral association which is
comprised of both commercial companies and open source organizations
that are developing and shaping GNU/Linux desktop technologies.  The
association will help shape the future of GNU/Linux on the desktop,
targeting the needs of corporate, institutional, and home users.
