Please ask these people to try out one of the three "shredders" which can compare sourcecode from Linux with other sourcecode, and, if possible, analyze and publish the results. One of these shredders is written by Eric S. Raymond. Here is a link to an article in which he calls for action by people with access to UNIX sourcecode: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,4149,1257617,00.asp The program itself can be found here: http://www.catb.org/~esr/comparator/ Regards, Ulrik Petersen, Denmark ----- End forwarded message ----- Anyway, I think it's a good idea, so I'd like to hear from people who have access to recent AT&T code. My GPG and PGP keys are at http://minnie.tuhs.org/warren.html and on most keyservers if you so wish to use them. Thanks, Warren
