мнение автора dietlibc о bsd

Дела давно минувших дней.

Теперь в тренде musl,и она под mit

а где версия для Ъ?

dietlibc

Why not port the diet libc to *BSD?
• Personally, I don’t like BSD.
• The BSD people are responsible for three thirds of the broken APIs that
plague Unix today. The rest can be blamed on Sun.
• The BSD people would not accept it without $LICENSE==BSD (currently:
GPL)
• Then, Microsoft could steal my code to make Windoze less obviously broken
(can’t let that happen).
• Technically, it would be easy as the code is portable (with minor exceptions
like openpty).

Why is it GPL and not LGPL or BSD?
• Because I don’t want to be ripped off.
• Everybody and his little brother is currently trying to do embedded stuff.
• Even Microsoft has jumped on the bandwagon and presented Embedded NT
(giggle). Only two or three of those companies have contributed anything useful,
the rest just sell other people’s code.
• So, if anyone wants to link a commercial application with the diet libc, he
can talk to me about a commercial license.

Тоже хотел привести эти слайды. Параноидальный фанатик в терминальной стадии.

Это ты так анонимуса троллишь или просто на сосаче пересидел?

А по-моему это так парень шутит. Но без просмотра видеозаписи презентахи не сказать.

я положительно отношусь к бзде.

can’t let that happen

Gift culture wo wse polya.

на фоне современного linux «broken Unix API» выглядит нереально стабильным.
