Progeny Brings Red Hat and Debian Closer Together 

On Friday (10/24/03) afternoon, Ian Murdock, the founder of the Debian GNU/Linux project and 
co-founder of Progeny, announced a status update of his company's Debian work. Murdock made two 
very important announcements: the porting of Red Hat's Anaconda installer tool to Debian, and a 
modification of Debian's APT package tool which will allow it to use both RedHat and Debian 
packages. 

Good News.  Feel free to talk amongst yourselves.
