I move this comment to chat...

Referring to Kirk's interview:
Excellent article.  Here are three questions that ocurred to me as i was
reading.

1.  What did Kirk mean when he referred to commercial companies
'leveraging off the stuff that is handled' by the bazaar model?  How do
you leverage off a free OS?

2.  Kirk referred to Unix dumping interfaces as they became obsolete.  Is
he talking about GUI interfaces, or some other type?  What type have been
dropped over the years?

3.  Kirk said Linux is suffering from problems created by 'unbridled
growth without thinking about interfaces.'  Again, what interfaces are we
discussing?  And how are they causing a problem?

Just some questions for discussion... i thought they fit better here than
under 'questions'.
