I've had this feeling for a while, that even we who know our history are doomed to repeat it. I've escaped from the clutches of DOS, Windows, OS/2 to Linux, transited through several commercial distros to Debian, only to find I have to do it over again. The difference this time, is that we have the source code, which is what the previous revolution bought us. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
