They would certainly give us an unlimited license, we know this. But last time we've been discussing P3 (as it was named by that time), we came to the conclusion that it, while being excellent, wasn't yet up to the task to replace CVS in our environment. And, some people might also have ``political'' arguments against making an entire free software effort depending from a commercial product (though i think this was the minor problem). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
