Poul, let me get this straight: people who use FreeBSD code for uses other than what you personally use it for, and people who take subsets of that code instead of taking the code on an all or nothing basis like you appear to want can "Bugger off"? PS: "Terry's set of problems" includes being able to diff FreeBSD code and NetBSD and OpenBSD code, as well as being able to diff new FreeBSD code against old FreeBSD code, and get something other than 400MB of cosmetic changes to header files and function prototypes. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
