It appears I've caused some distress with a comment I made on news.groups.
Just to avoid further flames, let me repeat it emphasising one particular
phrase that seems to have been underemphasised in the original:
>>Actually, I was going to suggest pulling comp.os.{minix,linux,coherent} into
>>the comp.unix world, IF THAT'S OK WITH THE READERSHIP OF THOSE GROUPS. That'
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
>>because Unix isn't an operating system: it's a family of operating systems
>>with a common core API... and as far as I'm concerned MINIX, LINUX, and
>>Coherent *are* Unix.
Of course I wouldn't take any such proposal to the RFD stage without asking
the people involved first. That means discussion in comp.os.linux, .minix,
and .coherent.
