Any anticipated effect on this Thessaloniki-based distro at all? Apparently, Greece's PM Alexis Tsipras has urged its citizens to vote “no” on accepting the EU's current terms of a bailout deal for the country in a referendum scheduled for this Sunday.

Don't know, maybe antiX's Greek server-sites for ISO and torrent downloads will slow or shutdown?

I don't blame the Greeks for turning down the terms for the bailout. They are fairly extreme. Every bailout Greece gets seems to just kick the can down the road a bit more.

They won't be the first country to face financial meltdown and come through it. Iceland and Japan spring to mind.

If the US and UK weren't able to use quantative easing we could have been in a similar situation.
