The first edition of this FAQ was made and maintained by J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) and Chuck Stickelman. Authors of the rewritten Debian GNU/Linux FAQ are Susan G. Kleinmann and Sven Rudolph. After them, the FAQ was maintained by Santiago Vila and, later, by Josip Rodin. The current maintainer is Javier Fernandez-Sanguino.
Parts of the information came from:
The Debian-1.1 release announcement, by Bruce Perens.
The Linux FAQ, by Ian Jackson.
the dpkg programmers' manual and the Debian Policy manual (see What other documentation exists on and for a Debian system?, Section 11.1)
many developers, volunteers, and beta testers, and
the flaky memories of its authors. :-)
