Hello,

Currently, there is misc/children-distros page [0] listing a lot of
derivatives. The content originates in 1998 (in another file: [1]),
then the children-distros page appeared in 2002 [2].
The page becames longer and longer until today, without a clear strategy
about what the page should contain.

A new page /derivatives/ [3] explains the reasons for the creation
of a derivative, the relation between Debian and the derivative
distros, etc. A list of derivatives is available into the wiki [4] and
the derivatives can add their own project to it. The goal of the Census
is to get better
information from the derivative and help the relationship between Debian
and the derivatives.

When the /derivatives/ page is ready, it will replace the
misc/children-distros page.

In your opinion,
 - should we add list some derivatives in /derivatives/ page?
  - if yes, which criteria should be used to limit the list?
 - do you have other suggestions about the content of the page?
