You original post implied to me at least that Indiana was the progenitor of those features. Over the last 6 months or so there has been a tendency to rewrite opensolaris history to suit whatever is "soup de jour". I think it is important that we keep clear about what happened, when and why. -- Alan Burlison -- _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
