Jason I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I really think it is. This guy strolls in here, just like he did a few months ago, having already made up his mind that this functionality is useless and wants to chop it out. He dismisses every argument in favor of keeping the functionality and just does not listen. NetBSD is the ONLY OS that does this. It has been an important part of NetBSD's flexibility and utility for decades. I would have less of a problem with his attitude if he would approach it as a question, rather than as a conclusion and immediately goes into flame mode when anyone challenges what he has already unilaterally decided that he wants to do. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
