c&p "Vía reddit leo que Debian va a sustituir la librería de C de GNU, GLIBC por la Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC). Al parecer los motivos son sobre todo una mayor apertura y disponibilidad para soportar distintas arquitecturas (sobre todo embebidas), la existencia de una rama estable con actualizaciones de seguridad, el soporte de más shells que bash, componentes configurables y una mejor batería de tests. El modelo del bazar en funcionamiento" via http://softlibre.barrapunto.com/article.pl?sid=09/05/06/1230219
"Glibc's maintainer, Ulrich Drepper, has had a contentious relationship with Debian's project leadership; in 2007 the Debian Project Leader sent an email criticizing Drepper for refusing to fix a bug on glibc on the ARM architecture because in Drepper's words it was '*for* the sole benefit of this embedded crap.'"
#3 bueno, no se puede decir que Stallman y Drepper hayan tenido una relación fácil. En 2001 Drepper escribió[*]:
Stallman recently tried what I would call a hostile takeover of the glibc development. He tried to conspire behind my back and persuade the other main developers to take control so that in the end he is in control and can dictate whatever pleases him. [...]
The morale of this is that people will hopefully realize what a control freak and raging manic Stallman is.

Pero ¿cómo elige Stallman a alguien así el responsable de un proyecto?
