One thing that I really dislike about LINUX is that everything seems
to find its way into the O/S. One of the biggest problems with
developing under LINUX (and perhaps in maintaining stability?) is
that every new "feature" makes it more difficult to figure out what
the heck is going on.
So what? This is a feature which you can enable, or don't have to. I
also fail to see how this new feature makes it any harder to develop
under Linux.
I can how you might think it's bad that there might be a free
implementation of what you had thought was a hard to implement,
proprietary feature of your software, but as far as the rest of us is
concerned, this is a feature, not a bug.... <grin>
