That alone should convince you of the unsoundness of your idea. Newbies can do so much potential damage in general that I find it really difficult to get particularly excited about this One Piddly Little Issue. Yes, there is a big problem with this idea, but we have a bigger problem. That is, I'm tired of agruing with you (and a hunderd) other converts (sp?). I know for a fact I can't get you to do the 386bsd thing with me, so why should I bother. By the same token, I am not going to allow you to "bad-mouth" 386bsd. Given the oppertunity (sp?) I will continue. You know my staying power in this issue and we won't have any winners in an on going "flame-war". This is a good solution so that we my go back to work. Mind you, next week I'm interviewing for a job of about $70K. I won't fight you, but I can sure make it so you can't win.... Whatever, Jesus. I'm still just trying to get past the idea that someone would pay you anything, much less $70K! :-) Let us all know the name of the company so we can avoid their stock! If you re-read my original statement, I said each appropriate group would maintain their respective portion of the FAQ. I wasn't even responding to your message, sheesh! Please read your messages more carefully. Jordan
