With all due respect to those of you who wear the blue suits (as in
Big Blue), I hope this means the development base for "OSFix"
becomes SVR4 instead of AIX. AIX may be a great implementation,
but its performance metrics leave a bit to be desired.
Does AT&T membership give respectability to the OSF crowd?
