...ee software developers are actually paid for their software development work. Maybe not as much as one might be paid for commercial software. Great example is postfix (free open source software), architectured, written and developed under the hood of IBM (thank you, great guys!) by brilliant person Vietse Venema Wietse Venema (I don't know where to hide in shame) Valeri (thank you, Vietse!!). > > Valeri > >> >> both are 'given' "in a world with out fences". >> >> >> -- >> >> The important thing is not to stop questioning....
