I understand you might not like it, but as an outsider to Sun, that's how I feel. I'm probably not the only one. Also, I'm trying to help the situation by pointing out what I feel should be changed. I think that putting Sun and Sun employees on a virtual pedestal and not admitting that some of the things Sun has done and continues to do might be wrong is detrimental to the wider adoption of OpenSolaris (under any name). I'm just trying to help. -- Chris Mahan http://www.christophermahan.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] cell 818.943.1850
