... perhaps, but not on this planet ... The stack code is
rather radically different. Also, on tech@openbsd list
yesterday, that code was described as a 'stinking mass of
excrement' or some like compliment. And finally, it is of
course, GPL'd -- and thus not suitable for inclusion in a BSD
license environment because of its 'infectious release' of
source code requirement.

Ain't the Open Source 'community' wonderful? ... and the great
Satan in Redmond stirs the pot with his pitchfork and smiles
... billg probably sent Theo a pizza, too ...
