I found the original article at RP-Online: Wissenschaft.

Canon UK - EF 50mm f/2.5 Macro - 50mm macro for Canon EOS - 1:2 and 1:1 with optional adapter

debtakeover - Conversion to Debian

For people with root servers running Red Hat or Suse, this might be quite useful: the linked script converts a machine running Suse or Red Hat to Debian while the system is running, and even transfers some configuration settings. However, it's still beta, so the application could also leave behind a useless pile of rubble - you probably shouldn't apply it to a fully configured system that's already in operation. It's better to use it with a still-virgin configuration.

Here's the original article.
