I haven't been reading the mailing lists or web sites much until now. I saw the web page for Dragonfly BSD and it implies that there were design differences with version 5 that led to this new version but I don't really have a feel for what the differences are, can somebody tell me about this change? Or are there political issues that led to this? ===== Christopher Mark Conn http://storm.cadcam.iupui.edu/~cmcgoat Austin, Texas, USA
