Feeding changes back to Debian

[Stephen R Laniel]

I know some people -- like Ian Murdock -- were worried that
Ubuntu would end up weakening Debian rather than adding to
it. I'm curious how we're doing. For instance, is Debian
development of X.org progressing any faster because Ubuntu
is using X.org in Breezy? I'd think that Ubuntu would
actually help Etch move toward stability.

Similarly: are Ubuntu packages staying compatible with
Debian? If one takes an Ubuntu package and strips the
'ubuntu' suffix off the package name, does it become a
Debian package?
