We should all be happy. As more and more people follow Netscape we will have more and more free source code. Isn't it our goal after all? And with free source code guess what??? We can compile FreeBSD apps. Incredible, isn't it. So what if Linux goes first. They have bigger user base currently. We go second.. or third.. as long as Microsoft and proprietary standards go last we all win. I am going to try to call Corel and thank them for doing what Netscape did. I will also mention FreeBSD. I suggest we all do.. now I just have to dig up a number somewhere off the web. -- Yan Jan Koum jkb@best.com | "Turn up the lights; I don't want www.FreeBSD.org -- The Power to Serve | to go home in the dark."
