Hi,
"Unlike Glynn, I have built my own kernel. It panic'd upon boot."

Peter Memishian questioned [5] whether copyright statements should be added to
modified code, pointing out that it was already bad enough that configuration
files had a 25 line license block. Stephen Hahn followed up [6] to say that he
had asked legal for a shorter license block for this purpose. Garrett D'Amore
questioned [7] whether or not these files should simply be part of the public
domain, with James Carlsson following up [8] that this had been discussed
previously with little support. Stephen posted [9] the shorter block, while John
Zolnowsky questioned [10] whether there was any requirement for a build to
retain the CDDL block for configuration files, just like compilation loses
copyright.

David Marker released [12] a prototype for a Hg filemerge utility, a re-write of
the TeamWare filemerge utility, called gpyfm (pronounced 'guppy-foam'). Steve
Lau reported [13] that he had done an initial cut, based on Darren Moffat's
work, of porting ws over to use Hg.

Sara Dornsife proposed [14] that the program team move their meetings to every
other Wednesday, as it would be more likely that an agenda could be filled.

Niall Power posted [15] his initial ideas for the GUI implementation of the
