> Which way do you think of as "up?" Giving the users what they want now rather than trying to socially engineer either them or the ISVs in unrealistic and impractical ways. You seem to be under the highly misguided impression that simply by giving ISVs some sort of FreeBSD compatability option for Linux, they'll flock to it in droves.

This is the classic delusional mindset at work. Because I refuse to belive that you are Napoleon even though you walk around with one hand stuck in your vest and call for Josephine at night in your sleep, I am in your eyes simply unable to see the larger picture and perceive the parallel universe in which you ARE Napoleon. The failure is mine. How convenient, eh? :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
