Turns out AdTI hired an analyst to compare Minux and Linux,
looking for copied code. Found none, of course, even though
strongly encouraged to find some.

Looks like the book was being written before the field work
was completed, in the certain expectation that the needed

publishing it anyway. Never let the absence of facts stand
in the way of a catchy line of propaganda, I suppose.
Sounds like an NYT headline.

Bravo.

Anyone yet mention that ESR also has a rebuttal out?
