IMHO, open source projects don't have a business side. Opensource projects exist for the developers to get the software they need, faster, through colaboration with others. If anyone else finds it usefull that's an added bonus. But if no one other than the devs use it themselves, the project has fullfilled it's purpose. Adding business value is the job of the distros, or Apple if they include it, or myself as an ISP. That's why I said before I think the real let-down here are the distros that didn't do anything about it. Extreme ? Maybe, but that's why I use open-source, for getting best of breed, newest, breaking with history when needed. ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- ch...@westnet.com -- (914) 948-3162 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
