Why can't Unix and Linux just get along?

"Can the Linux community get over its “not invented here” ideology
which has often hindered its ability to adopt technological
improvements from outside sources? I keep saying to myself, I hope so.
But recent events have shown me that we have a long way to go until we
become a culture of inclusion and not of exclusion and isolationism."

Way to post a bunch of FUD based on a poorly constructed straw man theory.

Please do not add to this mindless cross-posting troll noise begin

you use Google groups as

Hey, at least I have a real name.
Care to make a rational explanation against cross-posting? What
resource are you trying to save? Disk space? Have you ever
administered an NNTP server? Are you worried about Google spending too
much money on disk space? Is your screen too small?
The article in question was about the different flavors of Unix*. In
fact, I should have added the AIX NG and others.

Some very obscure view point if you ask me!!
I think most antagonism today is created by paid shills working
for micoshaft trying to dis Linux and sell the WINDUMMY LIES.
All the others are tiny by comparison.
Certainly, most WINDUMMIES I meet today are totally
confused and when their are opened they are angry about their
investment they are going to loose and angry they
it will take time to retrain themselves
to back into Linux they may have tried a while back.
Some even think Ubuntu IS windowps.
As the messed up world of WINDUMMIES get strainghtened out
by free software, there is going to be a lot more confusion
and antagonism from with WINDUMMY camp mainly because
of paid shills and WINDUMMIES working the newsgroups and
blogosphere on behalf of Micoshaft Corporation.

Well... those outside sources have to be willing to share.
Before that is settled, it doesn't really matter what sort of NIH Linux
is supposed to be suffering from.

Anything interesting in the latest Solaris is already being worked
on in Linux. So the idea that there is a NIH mentality is just silly.
Ubuntu groupies laugh at Solaris groupies because Solaris seems
like it's trying to play catch up and a lot of the new toys aren't
things that excite a lot of us. Sun had it's chance to sell the whole
lot of us Solaris x86 for $400 and didn't want to bother.
