These days, I primarily use it as a GUI for BSD. I would prefer not to use it even for that, but because KDE and GNOME are both GPLed, it is the best alternative. Perhaps MacOS 10.1 will change that. >than to spout nonsense like this. You're very wrong. The GPL is a great threat to standardization, to consumer choice, and to the BSDs and their philosophy. By using or developing GPLed software, you are supporting an agenda that is designed to hurt programmers and consumers for the sake of one man's petty vendetta. Do not do that. It is unethical and contrary to the philosophy of BSD. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
