So yes, I'm calling him out. Well, I have seen little evidence of 1. 2 _can_ be relevant in an architectural discussion. 3 may or may not be relevant - it depends whether FreeBSD can make use of the work or not. I agree with Julian that you are being unnecessarily provocative. IMHO, Matt has made a positive contribution to this thread. Rather than quoting him out of context, how about you take a chill pill and consider what benefits FreeBSD can gain by reusing work done by other free Unices. -- Peter Jeremy [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkopysEACgkQ/opHv/APuIcfMgCfQtuur3fxxWJA5Y/e5TUkr5JV CBMAoITs7gvN+hV225NiNxgtdqa+dE7W =X5V5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
