No. You mis-understand. I was short as Atkielski merited brevity or less. There were 2 points, not to be directly linked, with more `between the lines' 1) Insight on one of Atkielski's many noisy statements. + Web Ref to allow others to check suspicions of who this MS biased noise maker was. Readers were supposed to: - Realise they could discover Atkielski's real attitude to FreeBSD advocacy on his own web, which I'd read through: Heavy pro MS, non PD Src bias, no BSD mentioned ! Bare mention of "Unix + Apache" not even a URL. Just 2 PD progs. on offer both MS based, Not sourced. - Remeber previous Atkielski noise, & refutations many had posted. - Remember Terry's important point about Atkielski rubbish perverting the FreeBSD archive. - Not need all above, re-iterated by me again, - Not treat my one new minor point in stand alone mode. 2) I had previously posted reason.
