***FAQ*** ***FAQ***

1. The BSD code at the time seemed likely to be gobbled up by AT&T/USL and
locked away ever, FreeBSD, NetBSD, 386BSD included.
2. Mixing BSD and GPL licensed material is not legal - the GPL license
doesn't allow the mention in documentation/packaging requirement for BSD
code.  'additional restrictions' as it calls them.

Anyway I intend to spend man years getting the Linux stack to stomp the BSD
stack into the ground and to beat VJ at his own game.. Well you gotta have
at least one hard to achieve goal in life .......
