=== German Description 2be translated ===
Debian 7 besitzt einen vollständig freien Linux-Kernel, der keine problematischen Firmware-Dateien mehr enthält. Diese neue Version von Debian enthält verschiedene interessante Funktionen, von der gleichzeitigen Unterstützung mehrerer Architekturen (Multiarch) über spezielle Werkzeuge zum Einrichten privater Clouds und einem verbesserten Installer bis hin zu einer kompletten Ausstattung an Multimedia-Codecs und Front-Ends, sodass nun keine Paketdepots von Drittparteien mehr nötig sind.
Debian 7 comes with a complete free linux kernel, without any closed firmware blobs. This new release provides many interesting functions, from multi architectures (multiarch) support, specific tools to setup private clouds, an improved installer to a full suite of multimedia codes and front-ends.
  
Multiarch support allows users to install packages of different architectures on the same system, all dependencies are resolved automatically.

Multiarch-Unterstützung, eines der Hauptziele für die Veröffentlichung von Wheezy, erlaubt es Benutzern, Pakete unterschiedlicher Architekturen auf einem System zu installieren, wobei sämtliche Abhängigkeiten automatisch aufgelöst werden. The installation process has seen much improvement. Debian can be installed via speech synthesizer to suport blind people who can't use a braille system. The installer is available in 73 languages, whereas more than a dozend support speech synthesis. Debian 7 supports installation and operation on 64bit PCs using UEFI.

Der Installationsprozess wurde erheblich verbessert: Debian kann nun mit Hilfe von Sprachsynthese installiert werden, was vor allem sehbehinderten Personen entgegen kommt, die keine Braille-Zeile benutzen. Das Installationssystem ist jetzt in 73 Sprachen erhältlich, davon für mehr als ein Dutzend mit Sprachsynthese. Debian 7 unterstützt erstmals die Installation und den Betrieb auf 64-Bit-PCs mit UEFI (amd64).

Es gibt auch viele Wege, Teil der Debian Gemeinschaft zu werden - fragt uns danach am Stand.

English Description

The Debian project involves many individual people who work together to build a distribution. Continuouse development and improvements to this common goal created the Debian GNU/Linux distribution or just Debian.

Debian GNU/kFreeBSD is a port, based on the FreeBSD kernel, together with the most of the regular Debian packages.

The majority of tools is from the GNU project, therefore the name GNU/Linux and GNU/kFreeBSD. Those tools are free.

It is possible to run Debian on almost any hardware, even older one. Each new Debian release supports quite a number of architectures, in the current stable release these are 11.

"Wheezy" -the actual name for the stable release- has more than 36000 packages and was released beginning of May 2013.

Debian 7 comes with a complete free linux kernel, without any closed firmware blobs. This new release provides many interesting functions, from multi architectures (multiarch) support, specific tools to setup private clouds, an improved installer to a full suite of multimedia codes and front-ends.

Multiarch support allows users to install packages of different architectures on the same system, all dependencies are resolved automatically.

The installation process has seen much improvement. Debian can be installed via speech synthesizer to suport blind people who can't use a braille system. The installer is available in 73 languages, whereas more than a dozend support speech synthesis. Debian 7 supports installation and operation on 64bit PCs using UEFI.
