[ Lots of good stuff deleted. ]

First and foremost, you won't find me contributing to any holy wars,
*especially* on another distribution's mailing list (I've been playing
nice on the Caldera lists for quite some time :-).

I just wanted to make one comment on the above..."WGS" has never produced
their own distribution.  They have always been based on either Slackware or
Red Hat.  They may have made a few updates and some slight enhancements,
but they have never produced their own distribution that I know of.  Caldera
used to be based on Red Hat but now own LST so they could be considered to
be their own distro now.
