Perhaps you mean something else by the word "merge", but, again, merged sources would still leave us a huge source package. I've thought about merging gcc, g77, gnat, and gpc into one massive source package, but the thought of putting 20+ Megs through my 28.8k soda straw gives me the screaming horrors. Plus, how would you deal with versioning? gcc is 2.7.2.2, g77 will be 0.5.21, gpc is 2.something, who knows about gnat... --Galen -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
