Written by two Debian developers — Raphaël Hertzog and Roland Mas —
the Debian Administrator's Handbook started as a translation of their French
best-seller known as Cahier de l'admin Debian (published by Eyrolles). It's a
fantastic resource for all users of a Debian-based distribution. Accessible to
all, this book teaches the essentials to anyone who wants to become an effective
and independant Debian GNU/Linux administrator.
Given that traditional
editors did not want to take the risk to make this translation, we decided to do
the translation ourselves and to self-publish the result. After a successful
crowdfunding campaign, we managed to complete this translation between December
2011 and May 2012.
To live up to our free software ideals, we wanted the
book to be freely available (that is under the terms of a license compatible
with the Debian Free Software Guidelines of course). There was a condition
though: a liberation fund had to be completed to ensure we had a decent
compensation for the work that the book represents. This fund reached its target
of €25K in April 2012.

As that brief -- filed by Ted Olson, David Boies and the
other lawyers representing those plaintiffs -- makes clear, Obama's legal,
policy and personal views are not in any way contradictory and present a clear
path forward toward the advancement of marriage equality across the
country.
