This is not true. In fact, Microsoft's name was rarely if ever spelled out publicly on these lists, until that day a few weeks back that you started complaining why FreeBSD is not exactly like the Windows you used to have :) Most of the people on these lists can do their daily work without caring about the Microsoft way of doing things. It is one thing to say `I hate Microsoft' and a totally different story to say `I don't care about Microsoft'. Don't let the subtle difference confuse you. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
