Quite right, but the adjectival forms differ: "mirnyi" = "peaceful",
as in "mirnoe ispol'zovanie" = peaceful use, but "mirovyi" = "world",
as in "mirovaya voyna" = world war, which is about what we're going
to have if people do not edit their Newgroups line to exclude
comp.os.minix from this protracted PDP-11 stuff!

PLEASE get it together!!!  More than half of the last 200 articles
in comp.os.minix have had next to no relevance to Minix.
