Which is why I later responded saying I wasn't sure if you were saying the *ONLY* thing that was important was acceptance or if you were saying that it was more important than licensing. Regardless of context, I personally have a problem with acceptance being important than almost anything else. Yes, there was a point, expressing my opinion, and we all know what that's worth. Blame it on me listening to a crying baby for the last few hours if you want, at the moment that particular comment put me in a foul mood. I just don't see acceptance being as important as you may or may not have implied. -Shawn This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
