It appears that Dan thinks that "user-space" is somehow related to a user: i.e. the person sitting in front of the computer. This is not true. Arguably, "kernel-space" is more related to the user since all interactions with the user happen via hardware which is all managed by the kernel. Dan: "user-space" means not-in-kernel. That's all it means. Yes, I *do* know and suggest in the future you stop making presumptions about what you think others are thinking or mean. I suffer none of the confusions you speak of, and it is in fact you who are confused about what I think. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
