Lines: 19 Keywords: USA != World Xref: linus net.news.group:3261 net.internat:53 Summary: A Yea vote Xpath: stc stc-b stc-b stc-a I also think this issue MUCH too important to be hidden under the carpet by our insular colleagues across the pond. The rest of the world does not speak American, let alone English. The issues are much wider than simple consideration in terms of *ix, they are of direct relevence to anyone wishing to operate computers within an international framework. This is not to imply that the issue is not suitable for discussion in terms of *ix, after all *ix is the operating system which travels best at present, and any solutions found here will eventually wend their way into other o/s environments. Come on chaps, this marvelous network *should* be emphasising the global village, ( for information, not wanted ads :-) ). Please consider this another YES vote, since those made outwith the confines of the net seem to be discounted. -- Regards, Andrew Macpherson. {aivru,creed,datlog,iclbra,iclkid,idec,inset,root44,stl,ukc}!stc!andrew
