This is not about censorship.  We had a discussion about this on
dev-eng.   Let's have a look at the change:

-	<li>Debian sucks - that's the opinion of most of the core developers</li>
+	<li>The MPlayerHQ admin dislikes Debian.</li>

It is NOT the opinion of most core developers that Debian sucks!  This
is blatantly false and YOU KNOW IT IS FALSE!  Write all the rants
about Debian you want on your personal homepage, but keep personal
inflammatory statements - IN THE NAME OF MOST CORE DEVELOPERS,
e.g. the whole MPlayer project - off the homepage.

The only devs loathing Debian are you - Gabucino - and Arpi.
Everybody has the right to love/hate whatever they want and I would
never "censor" such a statement.  To help you jog your memory a
little, Arpi posted a rant about Debian on the homepage some time ago,
which I did not like one bit.  But it would never cross my mind to
remove it.  Arpi dislikes/hates/whatever Debian.  That is the only
reason the distro change was made and that is what my commit was all
about.  Arpi is the admin, he gets to make the distro decisions.
Writing something else on the homepage is FALSE, no more no less.

You know what telling falsehoods on purpose is called - so don't do
it.  Please get a grip and stop these pointless flames once and for
all.

Diego
