I seem to remember a "don't post this email on the list here's what's up" message from you I that I honored your instructions and did not post, nor will I, but I recall some reasonable suggestions from it. :-)

I've been working on LAN scalability for almost 20 years, and NetWare LAN performance vs. Linux (or TUX) speaks for itself. I would agree that someone coming from a Unix background would have radically different views than someone coming from the group who created the Networking industry that made "LAN" a household word to the world at large.
It's the differences of all those who work on Linux that make it such a potent mix of skills and views. I think this is a very good thing, and I take your comment as a compliment.
