- To put any concerns to rest, we have not been contacted by anyone
- regarding our 386BSD code, nor have we heard anything negative about the
- 386BSD releases. As 386BSD is intended for the research and educational
- communities and is freely available (not proprietary), all code we have
- written is fully disclosed. In addition, methodology is published and
- available for review in major magazines. In fact, this project has been
- public knowledge for over three years now.
-
- Please refrain from using inflammatory words such as "crime" with respect to
- 386BSD and the developers, as we are not involved in this matter. We have
- no relationship with BSDi or CSRG, nor do we condone the actions of any
- party involved in this dispute.
-
- BTW, patches should be out in a few days, if we can ever get through mail.
-
- Bill and Lynne Jolitz.
