As a bemused bystander avidly reading this newsgroup to glean useful information on 386bsd, I'm getting a bit tired of your attempts to conduct a farcical "trial by the media" type of circus. I'm sure the courtroom is the appropriate place for all of this. Why can't you let the rest of us get back to the much more productive and enjoyable task of installing and enhancing 386bsd on our PC's. If you feel so strongly that you are right and everyone else is wrong, why not offer your services to USL's lawyers. They'll probably pay you quite a big fee for being able, so convincingly, to win their case for them. Meanwhile, I'm going looking for an earthy sea wizard, who can do at least thirty million instructions by Thursday night whilst jousting with a black heterosexual catholic female and someone who leaves emacs coredumps in rather odd places, whilst hacking the code of a very strange country dwelling OZ wombat. Keep up the excellent work, Bill & Lynne (at least I can spell it) Jolitz (and that one too) and all the other marvellous people who have freely given so much of their time in making 386bsd the superb PC computing environment that it is. I really appreciate the service you give. >are there any other key points that need to be clearified before we proceed? No, I think it's about as "clearified" as it's going to get, so it seems :-) >John Bass >DMS Design Gary Roberts | Ph: +617-3654176 Mining & Met Engineering | Fax: +617-3654377 University of Queensland | Internet: gary@minmet.uq.oz.au Brisbane. 4072 AUSTRALIA |
