TODO & BUG of DebianOn Project

TODO: Review DebianOn Pages

The DebianOn pages should be reviewed by a native English Speakers

TODO: Choose a name

Find a good name (and Logo) for DebianOn.. Any idea ? Suggestion ?

  • DebianOn : short name. Easy to remember. "On" make "it works".

  • DebiOn : short name. Easy to remember. sounds too similar to debiAn. also spelling is confusing (might use Debi'On)

  • iDo (or !.D.O.): for Install Debian On. short name. The I (= myself) might not be the best choice for community project.

  • Ideo (or I.D'O') : short name. Easy to remember. sounds both like Idea and Ideal.

  • IdLO : for Install Debian Linux On.
