- Great wisdom, now... how to implement? (Hopefully, 0.99 and + won't break
- things so specifically Linux much any more) Since Linux is rocketing
- faster than anything else towards the center of the universe (POSIX) :),
- _most_ of the questions _should_ be dealt with more meaningfully (read
- with wider application) in those groups that you mentioned. Maybe Real
- Soon Now (TM J. Pournelle) Linux will shed its teething distress, and
- have a higher percentage of problems be normal, industry standard,
- problems.
-
- I think that you've hit the nail on the head, and the time is soon.
