Look , we *need* both short temper posters and a very calm an reasonable posters. About six months ago, if memory does not fail me a netscape developer attended the SF Users Meeting and not to my surprised was full ill of ill conceived ideas about freebsd and the reason being is that the "wild eyed crazy linux hordes" saw an opportunity and they took it. The netscape developer listed his main concerns and one by one we addressed them. All except the thorny issue of proper elf support .Interestingly the tempers ran very high when it came to freebsd elf supporting issues. I left and I only attended the SFUG meeting which Julian's company sponsor . The netscape developer walked away infuriated an shortly there after the netscape browser for freebsd came into existence. The moral of the story? We *need* to get involved with outside companies such as netscape.
