It's rare that someone hands you your own reply on a plate.  See above
for an expression of my own sentiments. :-)

As to the Linux/ELF situation, all you've proven is that you really
don't understand what the dynamics of that situation were.  You need
to go to more conferences so that you can hear the actual implmentors
explaining their rationale rather than just theorizing to yourself
(and us) about their motivation.  And yes, I go to Linux conferences
as well as to general UNIX conferences and have met and talked to all
the relevant players on both sides.

We still wait for Terry to tell us which way he'd fly the plane
instead and why.  Your strong suit would appear to be in the realm of
sweeping analogy rather than practical suggestion.
