-\ndsection{NeuroDebian is}
-
-a Debian project that provides the Neuroscience community with a
-stable and versatile research platform -- the Debian operating system.
-Since 2005, \mbox{NeuroDebian} integrates neuroscience software into Debian
-to allow neuroscientists to benefit from the advantages of
-the universal operating system in their day-to-day research activities.
-The NeuroDebian repository
-(\url{http://neuro.debian.net}) offers the latest research software for
-all Debian suites (and various releases of Ubuntu).
-The combination of a stable generic
-operating system, Debian, and a variety of conveniently accessible research
-software creates a versatile research platform for neuroscience that offers the
-latest methodologies of the field to everyone, for free.
-These advantages make NeuroDebian increasingly popular among
-neuroscientists and scientific software developers.

-yet another Debian GNU/Linux derivative distribution.  All work done
-by the NeuroDebian project targets the official Debian operating system. This
-approach helps to increase the longevity of the project by relying on the
-efforts of thousands of Debian contributors.

-% rephrase to outline the benefit, not burden
-\item Debian standards and policies guarantee quality.% and robustness.
-
-\item Debian's centralized bug tracking system provides a unified
-  single-point of entry for bug reporting and troubleshooting
-  for any software in Debian.
-
-\item Debian makes software available through a world-wide distribution
-  network, thus offloading bandwidth demands.
-
-\item Other Debian contributors handle large-scale aspects of
-  deployment, quality assurance, porting and integration at the level
-  of the entire distribution:
-
-\begin{description}[nolistsep,leftmargin=1pc]
-\item[Porting] Software sources get built for 11 hardware
-  architectures and 3 kernels (Linux, HURD, kFreeBSD). Porter teams
-  maintain build infrastructure and help make the code
-  platform-agnostic.
-\item[QA] Whole-archive rebuilds assure robustness of packaging and
-  warn about upcoming problems (core libraries upgrades) beforehand.
-\item[Internationalization (I18n)] Translator teams help localize
-  software for more than 60 languages.
-\end{description}
