   So explain to me why the Linux people don't flex those muscles?  Could be
   that the GPL makes such that the only relevent "flexing" is hacking?  It's
   funny how in the Linux world respect is according pretty much where it
   belongs but in the BSD world there are many examples of disconnects.
   Authority where should be none, and no authority where there should be.

   If you were hacking on Linux, Theo, you would get the respect you want
   based on the ccode that you wrote.  End of story.

Larry, everything you say is true, so true.  Another major difference
is that BSD has never had a Linus Torvalds.  Ponder everyone if you
will, what it would be like today is Bill Joy back in the day decided
to play Linus with the BSD tree.... BSD would be an incredible monster
to no one could ever stop, even to this day.  You put more than 2 or
so clowns in charge of the tree directly and all hell breaks loose, I
hope some of you are seeing the light in all this.
