Rubbish. I can still remember when people thought that writing small utilities (e.g: a shell) is OK, but a real COMPILER? Out of the question... OK, maybe a compiler yes, but a KERNEL? Nah... Surely, a full desktop is out of reach of a community effort... Hmmmm.... these are all the easy ones. GAMES are the ultimate obstacle. No chance to tackle it. We are doomed :-O Shana Tova and may the source be with you. P.S: Shlomi, you've started debating by cross-posting to 3-4 large mailing lists. Cut it out! If you cannot choose the "right" mailing list for a post, just skip it until you do. -- Oron Peled Voice: +972-4-8228492 o...@actcom.co.il http://users.actcom.co.il/~oron "A billion flies _can_ be wrong - I'd rather eat lamb chops than shit." -- Linus Torvalds on lkml _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
