Is it really nonsense? If you build a product for a user, and the user doesn't like it, is it their fault or yours? If you can't beat them (in this case, convert them to the old bash convention), you should join them and reap the rewards. Otherwise you will remain the outsider (less market share). I don't think Sun wants Solaris to be the outsider anymore :) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
