I knew there were people inside since they even thanked FreeBSD in the thank you list at mozilla.org but ill be honest, I didnt feel that would do us much good when the suits higher up didn't really give a fig about anyone but linux. Having been in a place where even if you have a better solution or want to do things the right way, arguing with suits to the point of hostility is futile :) So I figured roast em! But if you think the pro-freebsd people at netscape can change their attitude, then by all means I withdraw my roast the suits at the stake comments. You know better than I what allies we have at netscape. > To put it another way, we should be demanding a seat at the tablek > rather than attempting to piss on the table because someone didn't > give us a seat. :-) *sigh* you take the fun out of everything! :) -- "I am closed minded.
