So much talk about AEGIS/UNIX! What is Apollo's strategic direction?
I have heard (rumour mill?) that Apollo is trying to get rid of
Aegis and go to stand alone Unix (ala Domain i.e. your choice of 
System 5 or UCB 4.2bsd) a Domain that runs native and does not make
use of AEGIS (drivers or set up utilities)! Is that true? May be 
someone from Apollo can confirm or deny that!!

*IF* Apollo's direction is to go to Unix, would'nt that settle the issue
of AEGIS/UNIX *OR* is Apollo an Unix box :-) !!

What are Apollo's plans to go to 4.3? 

All flames to /dev/null please!
