>8p Are there any thoughts about the cil issue in regards to cygwin? If cygwin would have (in the future) have a cil version, merging would not be an issue. Will longhorn and derivatives contain a 'native' box -like the dos box-? Any 'normal' software would otherwise become completely us

I doubt that. If I am not completely wrong, .net uses bytecode (like Java) aka. CIL (Common Intermediary Language). (http://www.msdnaa.net/Resources/Display.aspx?ResID=373 ) I would not know how you can combine cil code with obj. files. If somebody knows more I would love to read about it. It is o

The implication of criticizing Microsoft's security and being fired as a result does have -naturally- a chilling effect on any public assessment of Microsoft's products.

I haven't received a single virus so far. I assume that this is either a moderated list -but it's too quick for that- or a virus and spam scanner runs through the contributions before releasing it. It did never occur to me: I had alone about 50 scans, around 20 crude IIS oriented attacks, 8 coder
