Okay then, I'm curious to see EXACTLY which things need to be "corrected" in your view. I'm not interested in the GPL-non-GPL debate (and I'm putting "corrected" in quotation marks to avoid the battle), but let's see a list. I'm thinking core stuff only, and I'm assuming (for the moment) that we're going to continue using GCC, unless you've got other plans. If you've got the list, maybe there are some takers here. -- Jeremy The difference between legal separation and divorce is that legal separation gives the man time to hide his money.
