Gene, there is no need to be this aggressive. For the record, Pollard and "nosh" are known to debian-devel. > A better explanation does seem to be a reasonable request. Indeed it is a reasonable request, and it would still be one even if Pollard was known to debian-user, or if his post had been sent to debian-devel. "nosh" is an init-system, one that might end up being a good replacement for sysvinit for Debian/kFreeBSD in the future. Maybe. I am not well versed on "redo". It looks like a set of tools that occupies the same locus as "Make" (to build targets from source files, processing dependency-aware graphs to both order the build, and minimize work when not evertything changed). -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
