Interesting article.

What is the "official response" of the NetBSD camp? See, e.g., the second reply to the article.

It is also interesting to note that Hannum keeps comparing NetBSD to Linux (the Kernel) and almost never to GNU (in its earlier stages, when it was a software distribution) or to Linux distributions. A comparison of NetBSD to community distributions would be interesting. And even to company-funded distros (RH, SUSE, Mandriva), given his allegations that NetBSD is basically a Wassaby product noawadays.

""""What is the "official response" of the NetBSD camp?"""

An erie silence, underscoring the points Charles is trying to make.

Or so it seems to me, anyway.

One get's the impression that there may not *be* much of a NetBSD camp.

I should hasten to add that I am not in a position to know.

If there is another side of this story, someone needs start telling it!
