- People interested in the "why" of this situation might want to read
- the article by Gary Andrew Poole in the August _UnixWorld_. The piece
- begins, "Roel Pieper, president and CEO of UNIX System Laboratories,

- make money." Although written before the BSDI lawsuit began, the
- article gives some good insight into the thought processes and
- attitudes at USL.
