Well, I for one would like to know exactly why it's called "Red Hat". Is this some sort of communist plot? Their logo *does* look rather cloak-and-dagger. Maybe they should change their versioning scheme to colors: redhat, bluehat, greenhat, aquahat. That wouldn't seem as sinister and then people could complain about them being trying to be too much like Apple instead of MS. That would be refreshing in its own way. But then we'd avoid the whitehat releases as white is considered an unlucky color by the Chinese and would probably be considered to be plagued with problems, much like the .0 releases are now <wink>. I guess you can't win. -- Cliff Wells, Software Engineer Logiplex Corporation (www.logiplex.net) (503) 978-6726 x308 (800) 735-0555 x308 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
