I absolutely share and appreciate your opinion with regard to Debian 
and its derivatives.

But I must say that I disapprove this "We play my rules or else..." 
attitude (which reminds me a bit of the to-CDBS-or-not-to-CDBS 
discussion we had some weeks ago), because I believe this is not how 
team maintenance works. You are perfectly right and ubuntuisms should 
be maintained in a separate branch, but c'mon, this is about 10 bytes 
in a Recommends field. Please don't be so stubborn. ;)

Cheers,
Fabian
