I don't know if anyone around here is using BK or know Larry McVoy or has any friend/relation who does but here is yet another reason to despise him and avoid BK at all costs: <http://lwn.net/Articles/153990/>; I've always avoided BK in the past for many reasons (the license being the primary one) but now, I'm going into a more active opponent mode. Mercurial is a very interesting product, probably one of the possible BK killers and I've been using it for 4 months now. I'd say that even the strongest proponent of capitalism would at least cringe at this lame attempt to stiffle free competition. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr Darwin snuadh.freenix.org Kernel Version 7.9.0: Wed Mar 30 20:11:17 PST 2005
