Brett, no one cares. Give it a rest! What I find most entertaining is the similarity between Brett's view of the GPL and Bill Gates' (as detailed in his recent interview - I read the BG IV and thought Brett must have been ghostwriting for him). And therein I think lies the simple appeal of the GPL to many people - if Bill Gates doesn't like it, it must be good. -- C. -- Craig Harding crh@outpost.co.nz ICQ# 26701833 Outpost Digital Media Ltd http://www.outpost.co.nz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
