Hint: Bill was already writing file system code when I was in elementary school. ;-)
Seriously...it's rather sad to see serious and useful discussions derailed by thin skins and zealotry. Bill's kind enough to share some of his real-world experience and observations in the old tradition of senior engineers helping out those who are entering the field. I for one find his contributions (here and on USENET) very useful and always thought-provoking, whether I agree or disagree with a particular point. Thought-provoking often means controversial, but that's not a bad thing -- if you've been involved in the software engineering process, you'll know that most engineers have spent many afternoons yelling at each other over opposing points of view before going out for a drink together, and usually the end product is better for it. ;-) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
