My point exactly. Darren Spruell wrote: "Then take a look at the names affiliated with the organization, and the people that are putting effort into furthering a BSD certification track and the reasons why. Many of the names you should recognize as contributors in our community." Contributors in our community yes, but this doesn't mean that a BSD certification is worth the money they charge. What it serves in my opinion, especially if the industri was backing it, is a way to keep very skillful people from getting a job! Not the opposite. A lot of people can't afford some 10 different certificates just to prove something which a certificate in reality doesn't prove anyway. > bsdcertification.org is there to boost the ego of it's members only. > There is no real value in it. Perhaps I am mistaken about the "them making money part", but I agree with this. No value! Best regards Rico
