Oh no - you open software developers are off your head! Next thing you will be developing a .NET replacement! Wait, you are. Hmm, nobody will be crazy enough to work on an entire GUI shell, though. Two you said? Not including the small ones? Not a modern OS, though. HOW many? Surely none is enterprise ready! What precentage of web servers? PEOPLE! GET A LIFE!!!!

Good thing I'm not part of it.





What do you mean by "grep wine/AUTHORS"?


AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!


P.S.
Yes, I spent the day working on a perl util to convert an MSSQL DB to postgres for a client (yes, I'm getting paid to do this, at least, I hope does anybody happen to know something that does that already?). I think expecting any USEFUL mails from me would be a total waste of time. Sorry for the OT posts.
