+Title: Happy 20th birthday Debian!

+Status: draft
+
+Today is Debian's 20 anniversary. This anniversary would have been impossible without a strong community of users and developers. That's why for its commemoration, we asked the Debian community what Debian meant to them. Below you have a selection of the answers we got.
+
+
+*Since I run Debian on my computers, I do not play anymore to 3D shooting games,
+not because of the lack of Free 3D drivers, but because developing Debian is
+more fun and addictive.*
+
+
+*Debian is a truly community based distro which is devoted to FOSS ideas and
+standards. It perfectly works on high variety of hardware. Users from all over
+the world have been using Debian and contributing to it during 20 years. And
+I am proud to be one of them. Happy Birthday, Debian!*
+
+
+*When I considered switching to Linux I asked friends which distribution
+to choose. I was told skip other distributions that were considered more
+newbie-friendly at the time and go straight to Debian instead. It might
+be more work initially, they said, but it would save me the hassle of
+switching to Debian later on, which I would inevitably do. Turns out
+they were right. I started my Linux experience more than ten years ago
+with Debian and have yet to see a better Linux distribution.*
+
+
+*[...] You are a worldwide community of volunteers working together for 20
+years now. To me this is an encouraging example and, given the
+sorry state of the world we live in, more important than the technical
+quality of the operating system.
+I wish you another successful twenty years and to stay as independent as
+you are.*
+
+
+*I initially started in Debian as it was an interesting technical
+challenge. Over the years the community and having good standards around
+what Free Software is has become more important.*
+
+
+*As a user of Debian for 14 years, and a former Debian Developer for 10, I would
+like to wish a happy birthday to the best project on the internet, and the best
+Linux distribution ever. Thanks for all of your support over the years!*
+
+
+*"Rock Solid Stability and Absolute Freedom"
+Thats what Debian means to me.*
+
+
+*Debian gives me a feeling that I am using the best linux has to offer. You know
+your machine is in safe hands.*
+
+
+*As a long time Debian user and sometimes supporter [...] I wish Debian all the best for next 20 years and beyond!
+Debian is the universal operating system. And it's free (and not just as in
+beer ;-)*
+
+
+*Debian is an awesome combination of obsessive high quality software and
+software freedom. It's a pleasure to be able to use and contribute to this
+project. Thanks to all for their excellent work!
+Cheers to 2**20 years more!*
+
+
+*[...] I am so very thankful to all of the people who have contributed to and continue to
+contribute to such a wonderful ecosystem of tools.   I love the
+commitment to the long term goals of security, freedom and transparency
+with respect to the computer systems that we all use and rely upon and
+the information that we store on them.*
+
+
+*Debian is the operating system that makes me free.*
+
+
+*Debian is a family gathered around great idea. Its pure love.*
