Cathedral and (Nonconformist) Chapel would associate properly, or Magisterium and Free Thinker perhaps. the use of Bazaar is peculiar too; i suspected the author was one of those who referred to his books as `tomes'. perhaps he had in mind that it was noisy, bright and colourful, and if you took something without paying you got your hand chopped off. no, that can't be right ... --upas-njfvcpxhjtpzzvkukxcebmfmgy Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Received: from tele-punt-22.mail.demon.net ([194.217.242.7]) by lavoro; Thu Mar 8 10:01:38 GMT 2001 Received: from punt-2.mail.demon.net by mailstore for forsyth@caldo.demon.co.uk id 984035142:20:00457:7; Thu, 08 Mar 2001 07:05:42 GMT Received: from psuvax1.cse.psu.edu ([130.203.4.6]) by punt-2.mail.demon.net id aa2100431; 8 Mar 2001 7:05 GMT Received: from psuvax1.cse.psu.edu (psuvax1.cse.psu.edu [130.203.16.6]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 059C0199E4; Thu, 8 Mar 2001 02:05:12 -0500 (EST) Received: from granite.cias.osakafu-u.ac.jp (granite.cias.osakafu-u.ac.jp [157.16.91.52]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with SMTP id 3A5341998A for <9fans@cse.psu.edu>; Thu, 8 Mar 2001 02:04:04 -0500 (EST) To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Subject: Re: [9fans] silly slider tool for rio From: okamoto@granite.cias.osakafu-u.ac.jp MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <20010308070404.3A5341998A@mail.cse.psu.edu> Sender: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu Errors-To: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu X-BeenThere: 9fans@cse.psu.edu X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.1 Precedence: bulk Reply-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu List-Id: Fans of the OS Plan 9 from Bell Labs <9fans.cse.psu.edu> List-Archive: Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2001 16:03:35 0900 >not faithful followers of the "Cathedral and the Bazaar" religion. As I'm not any native English speaker, I don't see why Cathedral and Bazaar is tied with each other here. ;_; If you are not saying the case of limbo and alef, we can put anything to public, I think. Judging to incorporate it into the next release is depend on those who will make distibution. Even if, unfortunately, it will not be incorporated, you can distribute it separately, and others can select what s/he wants. I think this is very natural... I prefer controled distribution rather than anarchy one, particularly for its core part. In the case of alef and limbo, it may be difficult to judge, because no one can live without money today. ^_^ Of course, I know limbo and alef are different language each other, though.
