I think you are completely right. If we want that end user distro, and
personally I don't think it is that important on who it is based, although I
would very much like it to be Slackware :). we should get promotion. I think
that SEUL has to come out more. I have noticed their site since a couple of days
and wasn't aware of their position and learned just two days ago that they
didn't do a distro. So a better position of SEUL, their work and the fact that
they let us ramble on their servers :) should be promoted more.

Can't we get some marketing machine running? Any ideas?
