That's nice, but don't forget that this is a change made to an individual project. This is not a change made to Solaris proper. You can pull out the pichforks and torches when that happens, until then it's rather rude to complain to projects about how their contributors decide to do things since that's part of the powers of a project -- to make their own decisions. -- Shawn Walker, Software and Systems Analyst http://binarycrusader.blogspot.com/ "We don't have enough parallel universes to allow all uses of all junction types--in the absence of quantum computing the combinatorics are not in our favor..." --Larry Wall _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
