<H2>General Information</H2>
<p>For general information on Debian, please see our web site,
<a href="$(HOME)">http://www.debian.org/</a>, and our FTP site,
<a href="ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/">ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/</a>.
<p>Our FAQ will answer many of your questions. You can view it at
<a href="$(HOME)/doc/FAQ/">http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/</a>.
You can also get the PostScript, text and packed-up HTML versions from the
FTP site at
<a href="ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/FAQ/">ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/FAQ/</a>.
<H2>Installing and Using Debian</H2>
<p>If you are certain the documentation on the installation media and on our
web site doesn't have a solution to your problem, there's a very active user
mailing list where Debian users and developers can answer your questions.
Simply <a href="$(HOME)/MailingLists/subscribe#debian-user">subscribe to
<em>debian-user</em></a> and send your question to
<a href="mailto:debian-user@lists.debian.org">debian-user@lists.debian.org</a>.
All questions regarding
<UL>
<LI>installation
<LI>configuration
<LI>supported hardware
<LI>machine administration
<LI>using Debian
</UL>
should be sent to <em>debian-user</em> mailing list.
<p>Additionally, there are user mailing lists for speakers of various
languages. See the <a href="MailingLists/subscribe#int">subscription info
for international mailing lists</a>.
<p>If you think you've found a bug in our installation system, send
information about it to
<a href="mailto:debian-boot@lists.debian.org">debian-boot@lists.debian.org</a>
or <a href="Bugs/Reporting">file a bug report</a> against the <a
href="http://bugs.debian.org/boot-floppies">boot-floppies</a>
pseudo-package.
<H2>Debian Development</H2>
<p>Please note that although many developers are not native speakers of English, it is
the common language for all development work. We therefore ask that initial enquiries
to developers be made in English. If this is not possible, go through the user mailing
list for your language.
<p>If you have a more development related question, there is a mailing list the developers
use to communicate with each other.
Simply <a href="MailingLists/subscribe#debian-devel">subscribe</a> to
<em>debian-devel</em> and then send e-mail to
<a href="mailto:debian-devel@lists.debian.org">debian-devel@lists.debian.org</a>.
<p>If you would like to file a bug against a Debian package, see
<a href="$(HOME)/Bugs/Reporting">http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting</a> or
<a href="ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/bug-reporting.txt">ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/bug-reporting.txt</a>
for instructions. Submitting bugs can be made easier by installing the
Debian package <em>bug</em> or <em>reportbug</em>.
<p>If you would like to make the developers aware of a Debian security
problem in a discreet manner, send e-mail to
<a href="mailto:security@debian.org">security@debian.org</a>.
<H2>Publicity</H2>
<p>Those requesting information for articles or submitting news for our news
page should contact our <a href="mailto:press@debian.org">publicity
department</a>. Please use the english language for your enquiry.
Other languages will result in confusion and delays.
