it is a ProFUSION joke started by ex-students of UNICAMP (most ProFUSION dudes) that relates to the tractor (http://www.historylink101.com/lessons/farm-city/four_wheel_drive_tractor.jpg), a very rude thing, but that does its work quite well. When we say "tratorado" or "tractorised" (kinda of engrish version ;-)) we meant someone just did the work (code or idea), but maybe rewrote all the original code/idea. It is a generalization of former "Barbierizada" (due Barbieri, yours truly) or "Espindolada" (from a former university friend, called Espindola). We both ran with friends a LUG, at first we tried to help, but we got quite sick of stupid questions and started to reply with insightful but very rude questions and the other dudes (lfelipe, ...) started to call us like that, then creating the general form "trator". I hope that answers your question. :-) -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Achieve Improved Network Security with IP and DNS Reputation.
