The point I was making is how deeply the connection to Debian is buried on the ubuntu.com site and contrasting it to Crunchbang's approach which is to give back mindshare
As for your two links point, the fastest path I can find is 3:
/ --> /about --> /about/about-ubuntu --> about/about-ubuntu/ubuntu-and-debian
3 clicks, each link with it's own level of prominence. It's safe to say the Debian connection isn't featured for the average user. And I would imagine well over half the website is available within 3 three clicks of the homepage, I have half a mind to crawl it to find out...
EDIT: I looked again and I can't find the word "Debian" at http://www.ubuntu.com/about/ http://www.ubuntu.com/about/, so either my search feature is broken or it's not there

(TBH, I shouldn't have bothered with my previous comment, because it was just pedantic). In my mind, Ubuntu is competing (or at least trying to compete) with Google, Microsoft and Apple. They can't afford to waste valuable front page space on things that would only interest people like us. I think that's perfectly understandable. They still have an Ubuntu and Debian page for those who care. If sharing credit is important to you, than by all means go with something like Crunchbang.
