I care. In fact I am totally sick of this redhat bashing. You guys seem to forget or are ignorant of the fact that red hat does not merely package stuff. It is the biggest contributor to the linux kernel and maintains several GNU tool chains. It pays M Tieman who runs the OSI and Venky who is spearheading the movement for open standards in India. They are good guys. And note that FSF, Harald Welte et al have not sued them. Looking at the people who are pontificating about them I find people who even traffic in doze prominent. I suggest we close this thread and sentence anyone who bashes redhat to hard labour - like writing a few lines of foss code. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
