The current license for ASE for Linux, however, specifically does not allow for this. It is quite likely that this will not be the case for the next release of ASE for Linux, although I'm not at liberty to discuss the specifics of the situation. Suffice to say, there is little need to petition Sybase to change thier policy at this time, the relevant people at Sybase are well aware of the needs of the FreeBSD community. -- ________________________________________________________________________ |David McNett |To ensure privacy and data integrity this message has| |nugget@slacker.com|been encrypted using dual rounds of ROT-13 encryption| |Birmingham, AL USA|Please encrypt all important correspondence with PGP!| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
