Well, I'm not sure I'd use the word "assimilated" - you guys are sounding like the Borg now. :) Let's just say that we all hope some of its technology is relevant to other projects, both in whole or in part, and that both efforts manage to attract enough people to make this whole issue something of genuine relevance to our daily lives. I also think that there's genuine merit in pursuing parallel lines of development, just as all engineering has its pure research and nuts-and-bolts facets which are not mutually exclusive. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-libh" in the body of the message
