Whoa! By way of clarification: 1) If I had authoritative information why would I bother posing the question? 2) The source were I ran across the info that prompted my query was cited in my initial post and present in the email sent out by the Mailman listserver. Noting evidence of confusion from some reading via Jive forum interface I followed up with an explanation. 3) Rather than fan rumor and speculation by posting to freebsd-questions, a list to which I am not subscribed, I addressed my query to what I deemed the most appropriate source for an authoritative answer. Moreover, in so doing I explicitly qualified the post as suspect. 4) I do not have, nor have ever had, a gmail address. To the contrary my email address is readily apparent in my signature. > they doubt the sourcing on this, but looking at the archives of this > list, there are a number of posts over the years from a Dominic Kay > using this gmail address but providing links to a Sun employee blog > (http://blogs.sun.com/dom/). If you Google "Dominic Kay Oracle", you I didn't need to, as I already knew the name. Hence I publicly acknowledged his reply as more than satisfactory, expressed my gratitude, and moved on. I don't really see grounds for directing these vehement comments my way. The misinformation has now been identified as such and nipped in the bud, wh/I would think would be a good thing. Thank you and have a nice day. -- Ken Gunderson <kgund...@teamcool.net> _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
