And now I read this post from Fumerola : ??? Anyway: not important. I hope there aren't really serious ego problems at FreeBSD, I mean problems that could damage the development itself. About Hubbard: I guess he has became just too busy with Apple, and well, so many years at core FreeBSD... To talk more technical: "the problem with FreeBSD" for me is this one: why no implementation of the ATA cd-rom access as a scsi one ? that makes things much easier for the burning process among other things.The ata <--> scsi code is in Net, Open ( and Linux) for a while now and works fine. You see: this not a theological problem :-)... Antonio - an "advanced" BSD luser... NB: I apologize.I write this on OutLook under w2k, because I need sometimes to use that anyway.But when more software will be ported to unix the world will burn micro$oft...
