He's actually trying to standardize his file locations.  Against what, I
dunno.

Yea, a lot of people do not like DJB (and vice-versa).  But his philosophy
is sound (it adheres to the Unix Philosophy of software doing 1 thing only
and doing it good).  He's got an enourmous ego and fights tooth-and-nails
with anyone who questions his software or promotes the competition.  You
should read the thread currently going on at [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Something
as unimportant as AXFRs have almost a 3 week-long thread going on and has
degenerated into name-calling and not-so-subtle insults.   :-)
