It is just a de-facto standard, nothing more.
Imagine if Linus or the Linux kernel guys tried to standardize Linux training --- it would be a mess. Also, though lots of people want training, seems that want _free_ training. They aren't flooding my Atlanta classes, that's for sure. I give classes at many conferences around the world too, and I get usually 20-40 people --- not exactly a flood either. Maybe they want me to come to their house? :-) Tell me what your wife is cooking for dinner before I decide. :-) -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
