You've quoted my sentence out of context. I wrote: "I'm not really interested in debating that here, sorry. I've seen too many flame wars in public forums like this. And I'm a technical guy, not a political one." IOW I personally prefer to talk about political issues elsewhere, face to face, and stick to technical issues here. That has nothing to do with Dr Strangelove. I've already written here that I find it difficult to follow your arguments or decode sentences like "Because what is discussed on this thread to me sounds as those who by majority have used the system (mostly for commercial large scale server applications) and are probably the number one source of bugs that feed development did not have much of a say on the direction taken." So I have joined this conversation only to dispute certain technical statements you made, and to ask why you make up statistics to further your hypothetical arguments. BTW I was surprised not to see mention of the Ken Thompson hack in what I snipped. Cheers, David.
