Do the Net-2-derived BSDs (including Darwin) really count as Unix-derived? I thought they were fairly free of AT&T code now, other than headers and the like. Conceptually, of course, they are Unix-derived, but then so is Linux. It would be snazzy to restore the classical typography of Unix as UNIX in your paper. -- John Cowan cowan at ccil.org http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Statistics don't help a great deal in making important decisions. Most people have more than the average number of feet, but I'm not about to start a company selling shoes in threes. --Ross Gardler
