I'm sure that any 386bsd related announcements would be posted if requested. I have not seen any 386bsd announcements in any of the 386bsd groups for many months, and the last one was about 386bsd next release being this summer :-(that was in response ty my question of "when"). There were some points of conflict listed. I agree that there MAY be a case of contention between the goals of the 386bsd and the moderator of announce. That DOES NOT mean that the moderator will let his personal feelings interfere with his responsibilities. I feel that it is the 386bsd group that has lost credibility by keeping silent, and not making the announcements of delays/progress. (And yes, we all appreciate the original effort, but NetBSD is today, and 386bsd seems to have left the realm of the real world.) -- Gregory Altman - galtman@ingres.com ----- Ingres /\ An ASK Company ----- Principal Member of Technical Staff My opinions are almost ALWAYS my own
