Re: Uh uh kool uh

Right. Additionally, the reason I would have is a little more contained within developer circles. Porting any software to another disparate operating system, such as the win32 platform, uncovers a lot of weaknesses that, when found and fixed, can make it run even faster and smoother on all platforms. For example, Habacker found that Unix Domain Sockets were heavily used and relied on for inter-process communication. These discoveries and more usually don't come without a some-what reworked port of a software package by a different set of people. Whether something is learned and applied to the HEAD branch ... well, good luck to Habacker and team!
