Hello,=0A=0A=0A=0AI just read this In this interview, Theo de Raadt and O= tto Moerbeek of the OpenBSD Project offer more information about PCC and GC= C and where they are headed within the project.http://www.thejemreport.com/= mambo/content/view/369/=0A=0A=0A=0AI need to quote these lines and ask how = far is this true for FreeBSD, and since I read Robert Watson about the coun= tibutes we have as GPL, and FreeBSD would like to replace it with non GPL l= icense.=0A=0A=0A=0A"What other hurdles remain in replacing GPL-licensed pro= grams in OpenBSD?=0ATdR: But that's never really been the agenda, see. Some= people think we hate GNU code. But the thing is we hate large code, and bu= ggy code that upstream does not maintain. That's the real problem... gcc ge= ts about 5-6% slower every release, has new bugs, generates crappy code, an= d drives us nuts. This is just an attempt to see if something better can sh= ow up."=0A=0A =0A=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A--- =0A=0ARegards, =0A=0A-Abdullah Ibn Ha= mad Al-Marri =0A=0AArab Portal =0A=0Ahttp://www.WeArab.Net/=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A= =0A=0A__________________________________________________=0ADo You Yahoo!?= =0ATired of spam?
