While you are at it, why not just package up the binaries for 386/ix, ESIX, SCO UNIX and SCO XENIX. Try to include as much of the GNU stuff as possible. I'm currently working on the GNU stuff under SCO UNIX. I don't have the time to bother making money from my effort, but someone should be able to. (This could almost be construed as an offer to help Conner or Karl Denninger or any of you resellers that has the resell ability to do this.) I feel someone should be making all of this stuff available in a convenient installable form. Of course, you don't want to charge too much, or I won't be able to buy it from you ;-). It's all just a thought. Eric Deese (osu-cis!liebert!esd)
