Snappy Ubuntu Core was available (https://techcrunch.com/2015/04/21/ubuntu-15-04-launches-with-support-for-openstack-kilo-new-lxd-hypervisor-and-snappy-core/) Snapcraft was released as version 2.0 (https://launchpad.net/snapcraft/+milestone/2.0). Snaps were now available (https://ubuntu.com/blog/snaps-for-classic-ubuntu) to everyone. Mozilla chimed in (https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2016/04/21/firefox-default-browser-for-linux-users-ubuntu-new-snap-format-coming-soon/) with their support. Snap expanded its compatibility to the likes of Arch (https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/06/snap-to-be-universal-linux-package-format) and Fedora (https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/IMI5TP2K6A6R7PSIOUBLOE62ENIZDXOA/). xdg-app rebrands as Flatpak (https://flatpak.org/press/2016-06-21-flatpak-released/) as a Snap competitor. Unity 8 and Snaps were expected for 18.04 (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Ubuntu-17.04-Unity-8-Snaps-Talk) The backporting of Snaps to 14.04 (https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/02/install-snap-apps-ubuntu-14-04) was a success. Fedora (https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/04/use-snap-fedora) saw that promised Snap support land. Mark Shuttleworth made a game changing announcement (https://ubuntu.com/blog/growing-ubuntu-for-cloud-and-iot-rather-than-phone-and-convergence).

Mozilla authors their own Snap package (https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/03/firefox-snap-package-available). Snap devs finally started their efforts (https://blog.ubuntu.com/2019/03/28/snap-startup-time-improvements) to slim down the startup times. Canonical's announcement (https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/call-for-testing-chromium-browser-deb-to-snap-transition/11179) that Chromium would switch to a Snap. Linux Mint forges their own path (https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3766). Additionally, they blocked (https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3906) the snapd backend. The dev team speeds startup times further (https://snapcraft.io/blog/snap-speed-improvements-with-new-compression-algorithm). Snaps killed (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Snapcraft-6.0-Coming) their 32-bit support.

  • Average users don't really tinker.
  • Power users like to tinker (this is where Leo and Dan fall as well as many of you) but there is a small amount of us.
  • Installation of the system and applications is not intuitive.

August 16, 1993, Ian Murdock's announcement that started it all (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianHistory?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Debian-announcement-1993.txt#CA-c114de97e513912ade3e21cedd1d833957c8edf6_13). January 1994, Ian releases the Debian Manifesto (https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/manifesto). April 1, 1994, Ian was struggling to keep up with it all and needed a break (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1994/msg00005.html). March 1996, Ian steps down as Debian Project Leader (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1996/msg00003.html). Leaving Bruce Perens to take up the job. The FSF pulls sponsorship (https://groups.google.com/g/comp.os.linux.misc/c/A30TG4KRx4Y/m/WKi_Yx0iuTAJ) but later the FSF "resumed cordial relations" (https://www.debian.org/intro/cooperation). June 17, 1996, Debian 1.1 is released (https://web.archive.org/web/19970616164301/http://www.debian.org/1.1/release.html) with the first ever codename based on Toy Story characters. It was named Buzz (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianBuzz), after Buzz Lightyear. A list of all the Debian releases (https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/releases.en.html). February 1, 1997, A board of directors had been elected (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00000.html) for Software in the Public Interest. February 20, 1997, Debian shows its intent to ratify a constitution (https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00005.html). July 1, 1997, Debian is really launched into space (https://www.debian.org/News/1997/19970626a) this time to monitor plant growth in microgravity, sending video and other data (https://www.linuxjournal.com/article/2186) back home. December 2, 1998, Debian ratifies a Constitution (https://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.1.0). At the beginning of 1999, Wichert Akkerman was elected Debian Project Leader and started with giving Debian a permanent identity. Logo on debian.org as of April 14, 1997 (https://web.archive.org/web/19970414140629im_/http://www.debian.org/Pics/debian.jpg) January 24, 1999, the logo license for Captain Blue-Eye, expired again (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/1999/4/mail#mail2). February 4, 1999, a Logo contest announcement (https://www.debian.org/News/1999/19990204)! May 3, 1999, the submissions were in. (https://www.debian.org/vote/1999/vote_0004) Captain Blue-Eye was thought to be too Linux-specific (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/1999/14/mail#mail1). June 8, 1999, The iconic swirl that we see today won the vote (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/1999/07/msg00005.html). July 6, 1999, dpkg version 2, which was hinted (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/1999/05/msg01405.html) at by Ben Collins back in May, is now officially a thing and the specifications are out there boasting a more modular design (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/1999/07/msg00012.html). Debian weathered the Y2k storm with no major problems (https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2000/1/). In October 2001, LAN Comp Systems begin mastering Debian 3.0 on DVD (https://slashdot.org/story/01/10/25/2250255/debian-on-dvd) ahead of the official release. Debian 3.0 was delayed because of broken boot floppies (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2001/04/msg00004.html). 2002, the first net installation images were available (https://people.debian.org/~ieure/netinst/). 2007, through a disagreement with Mozilla on backporting security fixes, would be replaced (https://wiki.debian.org/Firefox#Iceweasel) by the free-software version, Iceweasel. 2013, the trailing 0 on the major release is dropped (https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2013/05/msg01020.html). Minor releases will continue adding the point, as in .1, .2, etc. Also in 2013, multi-arch support (https://www.debian.org/News/2011/20110726b) is added. 2020, Jonathan Carter (https://jonathancarter.org/) was elected Debian Project Leader and has been reaffirmed three more times, and is currently serving as Leader. June 10, 2023, Debian 12 is released (https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/), codenamed Bookworm.

In addition a BareBones edition (https://web.archive.org/web/20160327124759/https://susestudio.com/a/OO38wm/geckolinux-barebones).

(https://web.archive.org/web/19981212030604/http://www.linuxrouter.org/) The Linux Embedded Appliance Framework, or LEAF project was started (https://web.archive.org/web/20010702160257/http://sourceforge.net/news/?group_id=13751) Oxygen (https://web.archive.org/web/20010702153509/http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=47922) EigerStein (https://web.archive.org/web/20011101024349/http://leaf.sourceforge.net:80/content.php?menu=9&page_id=2) The Linux Router Project was done (https://web.archive.org/web/20060421174527/http://www.linuxrouter.org/) The LEAF project was still there (https://lwn.net/Articles/37894/) August of 2005, Natanael Copa, while working (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5n_5Idlxvo) for a non-profit company on VPNs and firewalls, announced (https://web.archive.org/web/20110615024325/http://osdir.com/ml/linux.leaf.devel/2005-08/msg00039.html) a new distribution on the linux.leaf.devel mailing list. Alpine originally stood for (https://web.archive.org/web/20100508011627/http://www.alpinelinux.org/wiki/About) A Linux Powered Integrated Network Engine. The earlier versions are a little cloudy, but we see (https://web.archive.org/web/20081013232448/http://wiki.alpinelinux.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page) Alpine 1.4 being developed in 2006, 1.5 in 2007, Alpine 1.6 released on April 30th of 2007 and the switch to development of 1.7 in the days after. Alpine 2.0, the then development branch, first commit "added busybox" (https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/commit/645531103b2ee8ef54d53a58eca3b52f7d3fb9ac) Alpine 1.9 (https://web.archive.org/web/20091103100326/http://wiki.alpinelinux.org/w/index.php?title=Release_Notes_for_Alpine_1.9.0) - OpenRC shipped and able to install on hard disks. A new website is launched (https://web.archive.org/web/20101212021228/http://alpinelinux.org/wiki/Main_Page) Alpine Linux 2.0 is released (https://web.archive.org/web/20100821094210/http://www.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Release_Notes_for_Alpine_2.0.0) The team announced the Alpine Linux Forum. (https://web.archive.org/web/20160531153546/http://www.alpinelinux.org:80/posts/Alpine-Linux-forums.html) Alpine 3.0 is released, and uClibc is dropped (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.0.0-released.html) in favor of musl libc. Alpine 3.2 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.2.0-released.html) and included the MATE desktop. Alpine 3.3 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.3.0-released.html) with big renames of the editions that already existed. Alpine 3.4 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.4.0-released.html) with support for running within VM's, better DNS support and running on the Linux Kernel's Long Term Support release 4.4. Alpine 3.5 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.5.0-released.html) and this marks the first version to drop OpenSSL for LibreSSL. Alpine 3.6 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.6.0-released.html) with support for 64-bit PowerPC and IBM z Systems. Alpine 3.7 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.7.0-released.html) and now supports EFI and GRUB. Alpine 3.8 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.8.0-released.html) a bit behind schedule and marks the only release of the year. Alpine 3.9 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.9.0-released.html) improved GRUB support, initial support for the newish ARMv7 and the switch back to OpenSSL. Alpine 3.10 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.10.0-released.html) with lightdm for login and display management, which shows a renewed interest in running Alpine on the desktop. Alpine 3.11 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.11.0-released.html) with Raspberry Pi 4 support, initial Gnome and KDE Plasma support and the addition of Vulkan, DXVK and the Rust programming language. Alpine 3.12 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.12.0-released.html) with support for the D programming language. Alpine and others just do it better, so LEAF sees (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEAF_Project) its last stable release at 7.0.1 Alpine 3.13 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.13.0-released.html) and comes with official cloud images for services like AWS, cloud-init and better wifi support on the software side. Alpine 3.14 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.14.0-released.html) with fail2ban taking a back seat to sshguard because it... failed... to ban... and ClamAV is now community supported. Alpine 3.15 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.15.0-released.html) with kernel module compression using gzip, Gnome 41 and Plasma 5.23 land, and disk encryption is now supported right in the installer. Alpine 3.16 is released (https://alpinelinux.org/posts/Alpine-3.16.0-released.html) as the last release of this history with better NVMe support, adding SSH keys at boot, a new admin user creation process and a new setup-desktop script for desktop environment installation.
