Depends..what if each distributor starts putting in their own "enhancements" and different utilities and whatnot, a la Linux, to the point where the different distributions aren't compatible anymore?

I do think it's important to disentangle FreeBSD from Walnut Creek, though. -- cliff crawford http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/cjc26/ There are more stars in the sky than there are -><- grains of sand on all the beaches of the world.
