Fuzzy (but realistic) logic: kernel != operating_system operating_system > kernel operating_system - kernel = 0 kernel - (operating_system - kernel) < 0 The Q. I'd like to know the answer to is: What part of the (operating_system - kernel) part is ready to adopt v.3? Another (license compatibility) Q. is: If the (operating_system - kernel) is re-licensed under v.3 and the kernel is still under v.2 , would it be possible to distribute combination (kernel + (operating_system - kernel)) ? The last Q. is how good is the almost forgotten Hurd kernel? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
