Why? LPI has no motivation to use certification as a marketing tool, and is unlikely to replicate the mistakes of the proprietary world. I think you're having a knee-jerk reaction to the idea of certification here, and haven't actually stated *why* you're skeptical or cautious about it. It's a bit of an ad hominem without any backup. :-) - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2004: Adelaide, Australia http://lca2004.linux.org.au/ "Stay away from my house, you freak!
