excuse me, but FLAME ON!
BUGGER the vendors. what with FreeBSD, linux, NetBSD, 4.4BSD
Lite and the rest of source code available UNIX operating systems. get
the source. read the source. use the source. after all its ours now!
the owner-de-jour of the code has declared 4.4BSD Lite free of taint.
flame off.
anyone want to create drop in replacement packages for sun, sgi
and the rest of the hardware vendors?
