Well, not at *all* costs. Some forks are essential, like gcc/egcs and XFree86/X.org. The list of stable forks is very small, maybe a dozen: FreeBSD/NetBSD, NetBSD/OpenBSD, byacc/bison, Emacs/XEmacs are the ones that come to mind right away. -- Si hoc legere scis, nimium eruditionis habes. _______________________________________________ Chicken-hackers mailing list Chicken-hackers@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-hackers
