The purpose of this wiki page is mainly to track press coverage about Debian in 2009.
New topics are added at the bottom. New items inside topics are added at the bottom of them. "Reviews" and "General Debian Project coverage" are fixed position topics at the bottom due to wiki formatting limitations (no headings de-indentation / "un-nesting" without new heading).
If possible do not only list press coverage, but try to relate it to respective mails / news / whatever from our side, so we can see, what press published after we made some kind of announcement.
The press coverage pages are result of collective effort of [wiki:Teams/Publicity Debian Publicity Team] and all occasional contributors.
