The Debian stable branch is the most popular edition for personal computers and network servers, and is used as a base for many other distributions. The project's work is carried out over the Internet, guided by the Debian Project Leader and three foundational documents: the Debian Social Contract, the Debian Constitution, and the Debian Free Software Guidelines. New distributions are updated continually, and the next candidate is released after a time-based freeze. One of the earliest operating systems based on the Linux kernel, Debian has been developed openly and distributed freely in the spirit of the GNU Project. This decision drew the support of the Free Software Foundation, which sponsored the project for one year from November 1994 to November 1995. When the sponsorship ended, the Debian Project formed Software in the Public Interest to continue supporting development. While all Debian releases are based on the GNU userland and GNU C Library (glibc), kernels other than Linux are also available, including FreeBSD and the GNU Hurd microkernel.

Read an overview to learn more about our mission, our community, our governance, and what makes Fedora unique.

It runs on the most popular architectures, including server-class ARM-based. Ubuntu is published by Canonical Ltd, who offer commercial support. It is based on free software and named after the Southern African philosophy of ubuntu (literally, 'human-ness'), which Canonical Ltd. suggests can be loosely translated as "humanity to others" or "I am what I am because of who we all are". Since Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal Ubuntu has used Unity as its default user interface for the desktop, but following the release of Ubuntu 17.10 it will move to the GNOME 3 desktop instead, as work on Unity ends. Ubuntu is the most popular operating system running in hosted environments, so–called "clouds", as it is the most popular server Linux distribution. Development of Ubuntu is led by UK-based Canonical Ltd., a company of South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth. Canonical generates revenue through the sale of technical support and other services related to Ubuntu. The Ubuntu project is publicly committed to the principles of open-source software development; people are encouraged to use free software, study how it works, improve upon it, and distribute it.
