Again, netconsonance is "Jo" and a few random others that contract via the company to avoid having to create their own company. The "We" in most of my discussions is my $EMPLOYER. And you can see their logos and name listed in numerous places. >> We pay for development of features that >> we need but don't have the appropriate skills to fix ourselves. > > That then went back into FreeBSD ?

This is a tangent, and never in my experience has a tangent moved the original discussion forward. Are you in a position to make changes? What role in this do you have? What value is there answering these questions? (which have been answered many times if you google for them) I'd rather just drop this tangent. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness
