&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From&nbsp;my&nbsp;work&nbsp;on&nbsp;the&nbsp;PostgreSQL&nbsp;stuff,&nbsp;porting&nbsp;and&nbsp;developing&nbsp;for&nbsp;<BR>
the&nbsp;various&nbsp;Unix&nbsp;OSs&nbsp;out&nbsp;there,&nbsp;all&nbsp;I&nbsp;can&nbsp;say&nbsp;is&nbsp;that&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;is&nbsp;the&nbsp;*worst*&nbsp;<BR>
thing&nbsp;we&nbsp;have&nbsp;to&nbsp;deal&nbsp;with...*mainly*&nbsp;because&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;poor&nbsp;distribution&nbsp;<BR>
mechanism&nbsp;that&nbsp;they&nbsp;have.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;One&nbsp;distribution&nbsp;will&nbsp;have&nbsp;option&nbsp;A,&nbsp;that&nbsp;is&nbsp;required,&nbsp;while&nbsp;&nbsp;<BR>
the&nbsp;other&nbsp;distribution&nbsp;won't&nbsp;have&nbsp;it,&nbsp;so&nbsp;that&nbsp;an&nbsp;installer&nbsp;has&nbsp;to&nbsp;go&nbsp;&nbsp;<BR>
out&nbsp;and&nbsp;find,&nbsp;grab&nbsp;and&nbsp;install&nbsp;it&nbsp;manually&nbsp;(libdl.a,&nbsp;should&nbsp;be&nbsp;standard,&nbsp;<BR>
no?)&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sorry,&nbsp;but&nbsp;as&nbsp;far&nbsp;as&nbsp;I'm&nbsp;concerned,&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;kicks&nbsp;butt&nbsp;in&nbsp;the&nbsp;fact&nbsp;<BR>
that&nbsp;everything&nbsp;*is*&nbsp;centralized...we&nbsp;*know*&nbsp;that&nbsp;the&nbsp;only&nbsp;thing&nbsp;we&nbsp;have&nbsp;<BR>
to&nbsp;compensate&nbsp;for&nbsp;is&nbsp;variations&nbsp;in&nbsp;versions,&nbsp;and&nbsp;even&nbsp;then,&nbsp;I&nbsp;haven't&nbsp;had&nbsp;<BR>
any&nbsp;problems&nbsp;running&nbsp;3.0&nbsp;binaries&nbsp;on&nbsp;2.2&nbsp;machines,&nbsp;so&nbsp;even&nbsp;variations&nbsp;in&nbsp;<BR>
versions&nbsp;haven't&nbsp;hampered&nbsp;us&nbsp;much.&nbsp;<BR>

God&nbsp;I&nbsp;love&nbsp;a&nbsp;good&nbsp;religious&nbsp;battle,&nbsp;don't&nbsp;you?&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
I&nbsp;agree&nbsp;with&nbsp;Jordan&nbsp;-&nbsp;this&nbsp;is&nbsp;getting&nbsp;quite&nbsp;out&nbsp;of&nbsp;hand.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Just&nbsp;remember&nbsp;people&nbsp;-&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;is&nbsp;*NOT*&nbsp;an&nbsp;Operating&nbsp;system&nbsp;in&nbsp;itself.&nbsp;<BR>
FreeBSD&nbsp;*IS*&nbsp;because&nbsp;when&nbsp;you&nbsp;get&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;you&nbsp;get&nbsp;the&nbsp;kernel,&nbsp;binaries,&nbsp;<BR>
sources,&nbsp;man&nbsp;pages,&nbsp;blah&nbsp;blah&nbsp;blah.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Linux&nbsp;isn't&nbsp;like&nbsp;that.&nbsp;The&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;operating&nbsp;system&nbsp;comes&nbsp;about&nbsp;when&nbsp;<BR>
you&nbsp;install&nbsp;particular&nbsp;distribution.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Linux&nbsp;is&nbsp;more&nbsp;flexible,&nbsp;which&nbsp;I&nbsp;think&nbsp;contributes&nbsp;to&nbsp;its&nbsp;success.&nbsp;<BR>
Someone&nbsp;said&nbsp;&quot;hey,&nbsp;I&nbsp;don't&nbsp;like&nbsp;how&nbsp;thats&nbsp;done,&nbsp;so&nbsp;lets&nbsp;do&nbsp;it&nbsp;<BR>
differently&quot;,&nbsp;and&nbsp;out&nbsp;comes&nbsp;a&nbsp;distribution.&nbsp;People&nbsp;have&nbsp;that&nbsp;choice.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Please,&nbsp;this&nbsp;isn't&nbsp;a&nbsp;&quot;My&nbsp;OS&nbsp;is&nbsp;better/bigger&nbsp;than&nbsp;your&nbsp;OS&quot;&nbsp;<BR>
discussion/arguement/whatnot,&nbsp;and&nbsp;I&nbsp;think&nbsp;its&nbsp;delved&nbsp;a&nbsp;lot&nbsp;more&nbsp;off&nbsp;the&nbsp;<BR>
original&nbsp;thread.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Both&nbsp;linux&nbsp;and&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;have&nbsp;their&nbsp;good&nbsp;and&nbsp;bad&nbsp;points,&nbsp;and&nbsp;unless&nbsp;you&nbsp;are&nbsp;<BR>
going&nbsp;to&nbsp;constructively&nbsp;point&nbsp;them&nbsp;out,&nbsp;don't&nbsp;say&nbsp;anything.&nbsp;<BR>

＞<I>&nbsp;&nbsp;</I><BR>
I&nbsp;was&nbsp;discussing&nbsp;a&nbsp;similar&nbsp;issue&nbsp;the&nbsp;other&nbsp;day&nbsp;with&nbsp;Richard&nbsp;Stallman&nbsp;(he&nbsp;<BR>
also&nbsp;asked&nbsp;me&nbsp;to&nbsp;say&nbsp;GNU-Linux&nbsp;when&nbsp;referring&nbsp;to&nbsp;Linux).&nbsp;I&nbsp;was&nbsp;<BR>
commenting&nbsp;how&nbsp;Caldera&nbsp;is&nbsp;killing&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;by&nbsp;effectively&nbsp;closing&nbsp;it's&nbsp;<BR>
development:&nbsp;you&nbsp;cannot&nbsp;ftp&nbsp;Caldera's&nbsp;OpenLinux&nbsp;and&nbsp;most&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;<BR>
commercial&nbsp;applications&nbsp;want&nbsp;to&nbsp;have&nbsp;an&nbsp;OpenLinux&nbsp;license.&nbsp;We&nbsp;both&nbsp;<BR>
agreed&nbsp;that&nbsp;if&nbsp;people&nbsp;don't&nbsp;support&nbsp;free&nbsp;software&nbsp;we&nbsp;will&nbsp;be&nbsp;left&nbsp;with&nbsp;<BR>
the&nbsp;same&nbsp;situation&nbsp;UNIX&nbsp;has&nbsp;suffered:&nbsp;a&nbsp;big&nbsp;number&nbsp;of&nbsp;incompatible&nbsp;<BR>
versions&nbsp;with&nbsp;fixes&nbsp;from&nbsp;different&nbsp;vendors.&nbsp;<BR>
All-in-all&nbsp;Linux4s&nbsp;license&nbsp;was&nbsp;specifically&nbsp;designed&nbsp;to&nbsp;avoid&nbsp;this&nbsp;<BR>
situation.&nbsp;Our&nbsp;license&nbsp;is&nbsp;much&nbsp;more&nbsp;attractive&nbsp;for&nbsp;commercial&nbsp;vendors,&nbsp;<BR>
and&nbsp;strangely&nbsp;we&nbsp;don't&nbsp;have&nbsp;that&nbsp;problem.&nbsp;<BR>
I&nbsp;believe&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;acceptance&nbsp;was&nbsp;a&nbsp;matter&nbsp;of&nbsp;timing.&nbsp;In&nbsp;those&nbsp;days&nbsp;ATT&nbsp;<BR>
wanted&nbsp;to&nbsp;own&nbsp;an&nbsp;OS&nbsp;that&nbsp;the&nbsp;public&nbsp;needed.&nbsp;The&nbsp;only&nbsp;winners&nbsp;after&nbsp;the&nbsp;<BR>
legal&nbsp;suit&nbsp;were&nbsp;Microsoft&nbsp;and&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;lesser&nbsp;scale&nbsp;Linux.&nbsp;&nbsp;<BR>
Some&nbsp;vendors&nbsp;say&nbsp;they&nbsp;prefer&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;because&nbsp;there&nbsp;is&nbsp;bigger&nbsp;support&nbsp;on&nbsp;<BR>
the&nbsp;net&nbsp;and&nbsp;there&nbsp;are&nbsp;more&nbsp;books&nbsp;on&nbsp;Linux...Well&nbsp;I&nbsp;don't&nbsp;feel&nbsp;like&nbsp;<BR>
baby-sitting&nbsp;anyway.&nbsp;<BR>
I&nbsp;like&nbsp;the&nbsp;things&nbsp;how&nbsp;they&nbsp;are&nbsp;now,&nbsp;after&nbsp;all....one&nbsp;small&nbsp;group&nbsp;of&nbsp;<BR>
committers&nbsp;can&nbsp;work&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;more&nbsp;organized&nbsp;way,&nbsp;without&nbsp;the&nbsp;pressure&nbsp;of&nbsp;<BR>
bazillion&nbsp;&quot;Microsofted&quot;&nbsp;users&nbsp;that&nbsp;think&nbsp;an&nbsp;OS&nbsp;depends&nbsp;only&nbsp;on&nbsp;it's&nbsp;GUI.&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Everything&nbsp;seems&nbsp;to&nbsp;show&nbsp;that&nbsp;we&nbsp;can&nbsp;emulate&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;better&nbsp;than&nbsp;Caldera&nbsp;<BR>
does&nbsp;and&nbsp;that&nbsp;knowledgeable&nbsp;people&nbsp;will&nbsp;turn&nbsp;to&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;when&nbsp;the&nbsp;time&nbsp;<BR>
comes.&nbsp;In&nbsp;the&nbsp;end,&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;toyland&nbsp;where&nbsp;hackers&nbsp;can&nbsp;explore&nbsp;<BR>
possibilities&nbsp;that&nbsp;will&nbsp;feed&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;sooner&nbsp;or&nbsp;later.&nbsp;<BR>
One&nbsp;thing&nbsp;I&nbsp;have&nbsp;clear,&nbsp;though,&nbsp;is&nbsp;that&nbsp;if&nbsp;commercial&nbsp;vendors&nbsp;of&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;<BR>
products&nbsp;win&nbsp;we&nbsp;also&nbsp;win,&nbsp;so&nbsp;...the&nbsp;idea&nbsp;of&nbsp;a&nbsp;commercial&nbsp;vendors&nbsp;<BR>
registry&nbsp;is&nbsp;good&nbsp;(and&nbsp;we&nbsp;also&nbsp;need&nbsp;to&nbsp;control&nbsp;them&nbsp;somehow&nbsp;:-)).&nbsp;&nbsp;<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Let's&nbsp;leave&nbsp;the&nbsp;discusion&nbsp;of&nbsp;FreeBSD's&nbsp;development&nbsp;vs.&nbsp;amount&nbsp;of&nbsp;<BR>
commercial&nbsp;followers&nbsp;closed...OK?&nbsp;<BR>

＞<I>&nbsp;</I><BR>
When&nbsp;I&nbsp;first&nbsp;knew&nbsp;FreeBSD&nbsp;(2.0.5)&nbsp;it&nbsp;was&nbsp;considered&nbsp;a&nbsp;networking&nbsp;box.&nbsp;If&nbsp;<BR>
you&nbsp;wanted&nbsp;something&nbsp;for&nbsp;human&nbsp;use,&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;was&nbsp;a&nbsp;more&nbsp;recommendable&nbsp;<BR>
option.&nbsp;This&nbsp;gap&nbsp;has&nbsp;closed&nbsp;significantly&nbsp;due&nbsp;to&nbsp;the&nbsp;excellent&nbsp;ports&nbsp;<BR>
collection&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;strong&nbsp;CD&nbsp;distribution.&nbsp;The&nbsp;only&nbsp;thing&nbsp;that&nbsp;speaks&nbsp;<BR>
bad&nbsp;of&nbsp;us&nbsp;is&nbsp;that&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;became&nbsp;multiplatform&nbsp;first,&nbsp;when&nbsp;we&nbsp;had&nbsp;an&nbsp;<BR>
excellent&nbsp;example&nbsp;to&nbsp;follow&nbsp;!&nbsp;<BR>
