IMHO Unix certification is not particularly relevant these days … it’s Linux 
tool chain compatibility that is.  I spend time frequently having to adjust to 
old “Unix” utilities and command line arguments that are not supported (grep -r 
anyone?)  

A refresh of the toolchain and open source languages would be more awesome than 
Unix95 certification.
