Agreed, tbuitenh. Someday I will have to learn what nt means, though. I suspect Ken Brown, of the Alexis de Tokeville Institution (if you like we can hash out that one :) appreciates the article. While the wording may be somewhat different it does appear to coincide with what he refers to as true open source and hybrid source. Checkout http://www.adti.net/samizdat/brown.reply.june.04.html If it isn't available googling "samizdat's critics" "brown replies" and read it in the cache. It isn't too long and it does sum up the other writings I have seen by Brown. I hope you can have a good laugh. I just want to show him I am not the sweetheart of the rodeo. The referenced page doesn't mention Brown's prediction about Linux being sued. I did write him not long ago to praise him for his prophetic vision. I wrote him a couple of years ago to praise him for something I don't remember. The man is so humble he has been speechless :) |

nt == no text (in the comment), title/subject says it all |

"nt" should not be used on forums. It's a convention best suited for email, "(nt)" goes in the subject, so the reader knows not to bother opening the mail. A bit pointless putting it as the body. /grumpgrumpgrump |

@gus3 and jacog, thanks. I can see clearly now. The fact that the subject line offered a complete thought is likely the reason I never stopped to ponder it. |
