Posix is NOT the Unix file systems. Quoting from one of the Usenet FAQs:
"POSIX is a name originally coined by Richard Stallman for a
family of open system standards based on UNIX. There are a
number of aspects of UNIX under consideration for
standardization, from the basic system services at the system
call and C library level to applications and tools to system
administration and management. Each area of standardization is
assigned to a working group in the 1003 series."
While some of what the cited report says make sense, this is a fairly
howling error that makes me wonder how clueful this person really is.
