I recently started to get annoyed at Debian because they seemed to go a bit overboard at being “cautious” when it comes to approving new versions of packages (Postgres 8.1, seriously?).
Originally I’d gone with Debian over Ubuntu just because it seemed to make sense: Ubuntu is based on Debian, why not go straight to the source?
Well, no more. You’re now seeing the new Ubuntu-powered Babble, on a fresh new slice of goodness. Yay, hurray, drinks all around…

The slice that powers http://caius.name/ and other sites recently moved from fedora to ubuntu for the same reason. The ruby packages weren’t updated fast enough on fedora.

List of wordpress sites, huh? tsk tsk tsk…
Debian is my all-favorite distro. Except, they’re slow. Dead slow, I tell you. Well you know the rest.
BTW, who’s your slice provider?

My slice is from Slicehost, of course. Otherwise it would just be a VPS and not a Slice. :)
