When did Theo claim that the mere existance of a Xen port of OpenBSD would detract from the security or performance of regular (non-Xen) OpenBSD? I don't remember Theo saying that at all, and I've just re-read Theo's posts to the thread and I could not find anything along the lines of what you seem to imply he said. What Theo did say about virtualization was: > If people were saying: > > "Yes, it increased hardware utilization, and the nasty > security impact might be low" > > it would be fine. > > But instead we have many uneducated people saying: > > "Yes, it increased hardware utilization, and it improved security too". > > And that's complete and utter bullshit. Don's email made a very specific point which did not contradict Theo in any way. I think you're implying something about Theo's opinion that he in fact never said. Thanks and regards, --ropers
