What is the debian-mentors mailing list for?

The debian-mentors FAQ
debian-mentors is for the mentoring of new and prospective debian developers. Almost any question relating to Debian development is potentially on-topic for d-mentors. Although there are other lists which deal with most aspects of developing for Debian, they're often pretty hard core and can be daunting. If you think your question might be a little "newbie" for the hardcore developers on debian-devel, then it's probably a good fit for -mentors.

Are current policies or programs enough to keep children safe from maltreatment?

Child Welfare League of America: Child Welfare: Child Protec...
No. Americans are increasingly troubled by the many problems they see with the existing system of child protection. First, they are concerned that child deaths reported in the media are evidence that authorities are failing to protect all children who need assistance. At the same time, they also believe that uncalled for or disproportionate reactions to minor family problems have traumatized some families. Their concerns are well-founded.

Is Debian able to run my very old "a.out" programs?

The Debian GNU/Linux FAQ - Compatibility issues
Make sure your kernel has a.out support built into it, either directly (CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=y) or as a module (CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=m). (Debian's kernel-image package contains the module binfmt_aout.) If your kernel supports a.out binaries by a module, then be sure that the binfmt_aout module is loaded. You can do this at boot time by entering the line binfmt_aout into the file /etc/modules. You can do it from the command line by executing the command insmod DIRNAME/binfmt_aout.

What is Debian GNU/Linux?

The Debian GNU/Linux FAQ - Debian??LFS??Gentoo?????? - Linux...
Debian GNU/Linux is a particular distribution of the Linux operating system, and numerous packages that run on it. In principle, users could obtain the Linux kernel via the Internet or from elsewhere, and compile it themselves. They could then obtain source code for many applications in the same way, compile the programs, then install them into their systems. For complicated programs, this process can be not only time-consuming but error-prone.

What is the latest version of Debian?

The Debian GNU/Linux FAQ - Debian??LFS??Gentoo?????? - Linux...
This is stable and well tested software, it changes if major security or usability fixes are incorporated. This is where packages that will be released as the next 'stable' are placed; they've had some testing in unstable but they may not be completely fit for release yet. This distribution is updated more often than 'stable', but not more often than 'unstable'. This is the version currently under development; it is updated continuously.
