> Thanks. Since you didn't answer soon, and since I did get other info
You asked for a correction to an statement interview -- you should not
even have made that statment to begin. You did not do research into
the OpenSolaris situation, and you spread lies instead of spreading
the truth.
> Not free development environment that is REQUIRED to compile Solaris.
Richard, since you are a hypocrite who won't read web pages, let
me show you just a few of the Sun non-source bits, pasted below,
straight from Sun's page.
- OpenSolaris 'recommends' that people use the following binary
drivers from Sun.
- OpenSolaris is missing the source code for hundreds of manual pages
- Not all of the installer is free. You have to use non-free bits to
even install the software.
- Sun's X server and libraries are not available in source
- Sun's graphic cards are undocumented and without source
Richard, you are too stupid to go and learn FACTS before you open
your big fat lying mouth.
If you can't or won't do the research, why open your mouth? Why?
Why?
You'll go out of the way to build arbitrary Richard-rules to attack
various projects like OpenBSD and Subversion, but then you make
yourself look like a FOOL by not researching Sun's situation. You
really make yourself look really really stupid.
Who will you attack with lies next week?
