Why didn't you search and find out before you made the statement? You don't do your home work :-) If it is in terms of Code i will give an example http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=407983+409098+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/cvs-all/19990704.cvs-all Please do your home work and dig in internet for the rest! But the greatest thing about BSD software is that it has given us a Safer Internet by sharing code with everyone irrespecitve of the fact they give in return or not. People are free to use it the way they want and not restrictive like GPL which prohibits freedom. > When Redhat is earning money, the linux community also is benefited.

Even the GNU guys will say it is evil! --Siju _______________________________________________ Indian Libre User Group Cochin Mailing List http://www.ilug-cochin.org/mailing-list/ http://mail.ilug-cochin.org/mailman/listinfo/mailinglist_ilug-cochin.org #[email protected]
