That gives everyone a choice. Yes... but it is also an extra step that can be difficult for those that are accross uucp or read their mail offline. Hrmmm.. ok on this note let me ask this question .. ( and I have cc'd to the FBSD Postmaster ), If there were a mailing list for FreeBSD commercial products... freebsd-commercial or some such, how many would be interested ( as I am ) in subscribing to it? IMHO FreeBSD provides a stable OS for people to use, but the benefits of commercial software are apparent and having that software run on my OS of choice makes it that much better. The more support that we get from commercial vendors can do nothing but assist our effort to make FreeBSD that much more a mainstream Operating System. -branson ============================================================================= Branson Matheson | Ferguson Enterprises | If Pete and Repeat were System Administrator | W: (804) 874-7795 | sittin on a fence and Pete Unix, Perl, WWW | branson@widomaker.com | fell off, who is left?
