Wow, while I happen to disagree with most of the stuff I hear from you, this is actually a good idea! It was actually what I edited out of my prior post. It went somewhere along the lines of : "Theres nothing stopping you from forming a company with a stake in FreeBSD and publicizing that fact, like Redhat or VA Linux." Its something I personally am interested in if I had more capital to invest. So theres nothing stopping someone else from doing it. While I don;t like the rabid screaming fanatic idea, this one I think has gotten linux more publicity than anything else, including the rabid , drooling Linus fans that were next door to Kirk McKusick's BoF on the Thursday of the USENIX conference. -Pat ___________________________________________________________________________ Pat Lynch lynch@rush.net lynch@bsdunix.net Systems Administrator Rush Networking ___________________________________________________________________________ On Wed, 23 Jun 1999, Brett Glass wrote: > At 11:27 AM 6/23/99 -0400, Jamie Bowden wrote: > > >Oh fuck.
