And who out there in netland that actually paid money for 386/ix is
running 2.1?  To the best of my knowledge, 2.0.2 is the latest
released version.  I've certainly never received a notice that
I could upgrade from 2.0.2 to 2.1.  If 2.1 has been released for
general consumption, I'd be delighted to be corrected (and I'd like
my copy).  If not, then you as an ISC insider with access to both
unreleased information and software have no business slamming users
who are expressing their wishes for future product enhancements.

I have enjoyed (and hope to continue to enjoy) the presence of ISC
people on the net.  I do not enjoy the occasional inference that
we customers must be inept because we don't have access to the
same resources as our supplier.
