URL? Anyway, according to their faq: http://www.unix-systems.org/questions_answers.html#0 Q. What systems are registered UNIX systems? A. * The majority of commercial vendors have registered UNIX 95 products. More recent releases are now being registered as UNIX 98 products. See the product register for the lists of registered products. (the link to registered products is essentially the same as what I sent; no Apple there.) ... Q. What types of product can bear the UNIX Brand? A. * Only those computer operating system that implement the services as specified in the Specification set(s) for UNIX 93 , UNIX 95 or UNIX 98. > All they have to do is include some of the UNIX > code anywhere in the product, and it's UNIX-derived and > therefore permitted to use the trademark on it. So now that FreeBSD includes the One True Awk, it qualifies for the UNIX trademark? - Rahul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
