I once complained to a Sun guy about this issue and he told me it has all got to do with certification.
You see, to get US Gov projects, the OS needs to be certified. Apparently, they don't want to improve those userland tools as it may mean they will break the certification process and billions of $ worth of contract....
Surprised to see this article so I thought I'll talk a bit about a website I newly created (http://www.opinomics.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page ) .
Not much content at this stage but it's a website to gather feedback about companies, organised by cities. The rationale is that if we can focus the feedback into one convenient place, we can help to address information asymmetry that exists between companies and customers.
Never assume. Anything is possible here.
