Sorry Les. Bah humbug; big deal. I still wan't to hear about all
distros. Even if 3 people happen to strike the same idea at the same
time. It's probably a waste of bandwidth when I report Gentoo or
Vectorlinux news, but I'll do it anyway.
I don't intend to subscribe to the Caldera list again any time soon, but
I'm happy to hear news.
Let it rest.
