I .75 suspect that such a marriage would be caused by the second systems syndrome and carry no tangible benefits at the end of the day. I respect CAM, it seems to work out great. It also looks like sos driver does what it should so far. I don't see much point in merging the two for the benefits suggested so far. In particular I don't want to see sos and justin spend a lot of time haggeling over the issues for the rather meagre benefits cited so far. -- Poul-Henning Kamp FreeBSD coreteam member phk@FreeBSD.ORG "Real hackers run -current on their laptop."
