Debian is free to distribute the distributed.net client in any and all
of their official distributions they see fit. This extends to, but
is not limited to, their Debian/Netbsd port.
We at distributed.net appreciate the hard work of the Debian team and
remain in awe of their methodical attention to licensing and
redistribution obligations. Keep up the good work.
