Linux is one of many supported platforms and it causes more workload than others. Since February 1985 (when the first Sun arrived in Europe), I am working on SunOS. Before, I was working on UNOS - a UNIX clone. The main development is still on Solaris and frequent compilations are also done on HP-UX and Mac OS X. Less frequent compilations are done on Linux and FreeBSD, as well as on Haiku. I would be interested to again get access to AIX and IRIX (I know IRIX is dead but it has the best warnings in the C-compiler ;-). > Even in FreeBSD, Stable only later came to mean the common English > meaning of reliable, I remember several times people asserting all > Stable meant was that the API (libs etc) avoided sudden changes like > in current, didn't back then mean make world wouldnt break etc. The last interface change im mkisofs (disallow -H/-L/-P for future POSIX.1-2001 usage with these optiions) was implemented in December 2006. It was announced in October 2002.
