I hope this hasn't been mentioned already (my -advocacy subscription seems to have died; haven't seen anything in over a week.) Anyway, there's a brief quote from Jordan in the current IEEE Internet Computing, part of a piece on the freebie Solaris (supposed to encourage people to develop for it -- so they ship it without a compiler. Clever). ... Open-source advocates clearly disagree. "Without the source code, there's only so much 'development' one can do---which is very little," says Jordan K. Hubbard, coporate liasion for FreeBSD, a nonproprietary advanced Unix operating system for PC-compatibles. It's nice to see jkh getting quoted in these things rather than esr or some other Linux evangelist. Of course, there is yet another plug for the 'Bazaar' paper in the same issue, but you can't have everything your own way all the time, I guess :( URL for the above article is: http://computer.org/internet/v2n5/w5news.htm#solaris Cheers, Scott. -- =========================================================================== Scott Mitchell | PGP Key ID |"If I can't have my coffee, I'm just <scott@dcs.qmw.ac.uk> | 0x54B171B9 | like a dried up piece of roast goat" QMW College, London, UK | 0xAA775B8B | -- J.
