think the answer to this question is: we don't know.  Work on
the L4 codebase is valuable in my opinion; work on the Mach
codebase is valuable.  They are both valuable in different ways,
and I think that there is not a good reason to regard them as so
separable.  reply via email to  [Prev in Thread] Current Thread
