Idea to replace sh with bash, pdksh, ksh, zsh ... whatever (take your peek) has been beaten do death on these mailing lists already. And general consensus is that it is remarkably BAD idea. Please do some research in mailing lists archives before posting... I hope there is not a chance in a hell that bash will ever be considered for inclusion into the base source tree. Apart from it's poor sh compatibility and unnecessary code bloat it is also under GPL which hardly qualifies it for an inclusion as primary shell into BSD system. What's wrong with bash in ports anyway? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
