Hh. Hahahah. HAHAHA. MUHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Sorry, where was I. Oh yeah. There is far too much bad undergrowth on the Internet, of old code and old systems that "it still works" and is never upgraded. For example, we see plenty of instances of dnsmasq which are so old that the version date is before the developer started keeping a changelog. Short of setting deliberate viral brush fires designed to brick old devices, we're stuck with them and need to plan around them. -- Nicholas Weaver it is a tale, told by an idiot, nwea...@icsi.berkeley.edu full of sound and fury, 510-666-2903 .signifying nothing PGP: http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~nweaver/data/nweaver_pub.asc
