>From what I've seen on this list, I'm afraid the answer to that is "because we wanna" =). Might turn out to be a total disaster, who knows. We won't unless we try. If you wanted to make a LinuxBSD that used the Linux kernel and BSD userland, then more power to you =). That's not what's being aimed for here though. The people here want *Debian* with a BSD kernel. It's like saying that someone wants Windows with a Linux kernel. That's a much much bigger stretch but assuming it was possible I think that's a reasonable thing to want. It's different from saying that I want Windows programs to install on my Linux box. -- Edwin Meese made me wear CORDOVANS!!
