This is the sort of thing that bothers me. Bob called me an hour before press time and he asked if I knew anything about BrandZ because he needed to write something. I told him that I was more focused on the porting issues and on getting software packages for the SchilliX distro. He told me quite frankly that he was a reporter and knew nothing about it, who could he call to talk with them about it. Heck, I don't know. This is open source now and you should probably check the OpenSolaris web site or maybe catch a kernel engineer. That sort of thing. The real thing that bugs me, is that we put so much emphasis on these things that show up in the press that are written by people that know nothing about what they are writing about and they write it at the very last minute. If software were written this way ... ghastly things would happen. When press articles are written in this manner we hold them up and show them to people as if they we diamonds or research papers from respected scientists. Where is our common sense ? Dennis
