    Just wanted to go thru all the typical rubbish quick, maybe that way we can see some insightful content on a BSD post ;)

    You really didn't have to (auto-) post this so many times.

    Look on the bright side. Matt's doing DBSD and we get AmigaDOS++ out of it. Go Matt!

    This I am aware of, as I've seen this identical posting atleast 4 times in other threads. I just had to go on record and disprove his mindless dribble, if not merely for my own satisfaction.

    OK, so a simple, innocent question about BSD history / free software politics actually is totally off-topic on an article about BSD. OK mods...what article should I attach this question to? Believe it or not some of us are actually curious about where this all started.

    Hey..I know...Ill make up a smart arse SCO comment about BSD..then Ill get modded +5 funny even though it has nothing to do with BSD at all.
