Poul, you're going off again, without regard for facts.
Remember the last time FreeBSD history came up, I proved Nate
mistaken in his claim that my authorship of the original 386BSD
FAQ was "revisionist history".
You can check these facts out in the archives on Minnie; I can
also provide almost every email I ever sent or received (if it
resulted in a response from me to the author), from 1988 forward,
since I have it all archived, since even at the time, I felt it
might end up being an important historical record. At the very
least, it has provided me with a rich source of information from
which to draw, in order to study "Open Source" projects in general,
and 386BSD, FreeBSD, and NetBSD, in particular.
I am only willing to open up the non-private email sent or
received, and then only with considerable incentive (it is a
very large archive).
Alternately, you can go to Warren's archive and look there,
before making accusations of revisionism.
However, if you insist, I can and will happily quote large
sections of it to this mailing list, in support of any contended
claims of inaccuracy...
Thanks,
-- Terry
