About Debian
The Debian Project was founded in 1993 by Ian Murdock to be a truly

the largest and most influential open source projects. Over three
thousand volunteers from all over the world work together to create and
maintain Debian software. Translated into 70 languages, and
supporting a huge range of computer types, Debian calls itself the
universal operating system
