It was obvious to me then that this would happen sooner or later, because it was almost baldly stated. If you look at TOG participants, they're mostly from commercial UNIX, not academia or freeware. When MIT passed the baton to TOG, the writing was on the wall. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
