Nicolas, Larry has not said he won't make the changes that Roman wants, instead he has said he won't make the changes for FREE!. There is a perfectly reasonable solution. Raise the funds to pay for the needed changes. It is just not reasonable to expect Larry to fund work whose sole purpose is to compete with himself. He is going a long way in saying he will do the work if paid at standard rates. Again, this is not Larry's fault, it is Linus that picked the tool. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
