See, now you're just trying to make me cry. More seriously: SUSv3 and SUSv2 both mandate ed(1). If ed is not present, it's therefore not "Unix", for my purposes (not following the Single Unix Specification). Irregardless of arguments over the heritage of the kernel, or historical definitions of Unix, today I'll point at SUSv3. Because it's convenient and suits my purposes. *cough* -Phil PS: gratz on getting the new Netnews RFCs out!
