I probably have the news article I posted about it. At the time
I proposed it `those who know everything' loudly lambasted it
as the stupidest idea any mortal ever had. ``Just look how
the X consortium has destroyed window systems!'' they said.
Anyway, since I now use FreeBSD as the core platform for our
systems, I would support (monetarily and orgainzationally)
a ``vendor independent'' bsd consortium, along the lines
of the X consortium.
