Boy i feel like living in stoneage!!!

Just read this!!

"Are we becoming irrelevant? Is it time to give up? I don't believe that
either is true. I see our competition facing challenges of their own. Linux
keeps re-writing major portions of the kernel and has stability issues. It
now depends on 3rd party vendors to integrate and make stable releases of the
code. FreeBSD took over the huge task to implement fine grain SMP and after
two years of effort they still don't have a production quality system.
OpenBSD is still touting its security features but lacks the manpower to
integrate major kernel features such as UBC and address performance problems.
Instead it focuses in supporting and re-implementing major userland
utilities. The Windows release cycles keep getting longer and longer and
promised features keep getting postponed because of the increasing complexity
of the operating system. Sun is trying to keep Solaris relevant by
open-sourcing it, but nobody is certain of what is going to be open-sourced
and when. Apple's Darwin effort does not seem to be producing any useful
results, possibly because it is not complete, and the open-source version of
the tree is always behind the commercial version."

This is quote from NetBSD president, trying to encourage the netBSD community.
But hell he managed to find out disastrous view of all the other operating
systems. None of them are spared. Reading this feels like computing as we
know it is comming to an end. Ha ha ha!!! i hope this does not put of few
instead of getting them on to do something. :-))

His interpretation of linux cycle is a bit off the road btw. Its not that
linux is becoming unstable and community is fighting it and can't do it so
vendors have to do it.
Its rather a calculated change made by linus and the gang. The process is
being put there by design and not due to desparation as the above makes it
sound.
