Found it, & I see it adressed in body of mail as "All", even though
headers suggest just I got it, so it seems OK to forward it to list.

All,
Now that I think about it, the XP kernel has a
fair amount of code from the BSD kernel. It's nothing
that Microsoft wants to be too public, but I read it
in a news article from the Register if memory serves,
so it's probably true. Now all you need to do is get
on the inside track in Redmond... if you're
interested.
Bottom line, obviously Microsoft has a vested
interest in development of the BSD kernel. They should
put some of there money up to the table, after all
they are reaping the rewards without having to pay
anything up front. I think it's more stable
personally..
Also, OS X is BSD based as well. I wouldn't be
surprised if Apple is putting some money into BSD.
Although It does appear as if they have created a new
branch on the BSD tree much like Sun Micro did ages
ago.
Hope this helps
Noel
