Hello Christian,

I disagree with the removal of the Debian project branding from the
description. Popularity-contest is an official Debian project and this 
package report to the Debian project and to no one else.

The term distribution here is incorrect because if you install this
popcon package on another distribution it will still report to Debian
and not to the other distribution developers.

Furthermore we should keep our identity and not be "the distribution
Debian based-distribution are based on".

Imagine a large blue swirl here.
