This is the part I have serious troubles with- "on purpose" implies that it was a pre-planned, thought-out event, not that you just didn't screw it up by not doing anything[1]. The code bases _started out differently_ for no reason other than the fact that the products were from different companies, on two different platforms. To paint that fact as if it were some sort of strategic plan does the readers of this list a disservice.
PS - Paul R, my posts seem to again not be making the list,
The list is still moderated, it takes the moderator some time to get through the queue... Paul [1] From what I recall when Cisco was repeatedly trying to get me to buy in to the fact that PIX should be on my list of approved firewalls at Gannett, one of the points they kept trying to make was that PIX was getting more IOS features to make it easier for folks to deal with a single interface- so it would seem to me that even the keeping them apart wasn't necessarily a planned event. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
