AFAIR it alludes to controversies between the BSD camps. No, I don't have a public source for this, I'd have to ask (should I?). I thought this was more commonly known (with me being the exception that didn't know) or seen that way. If that's not the case, I'm unsure if it's worth bothering. Cheers, Ralf
