I'm curious, it seems there are more people here enjoying gloating over those that were anxious for the source than there are people actually using it. And that's what I'm really curious about, has anyone found the source posted to be particularly useful?
There are a number of people who seem to actually compile operational systems from the source. I'm not one of them (too dumb) but I have used the source code on several occasions to fathom why things compile here and not there or why what used to work suddenly decides not to.
... Do people actually do anything with the source, or just have an obsessive compulsive disorder to continually check for it?
Some probably do suffer for us all with OCD. Still, having the real story where you can work with it is at least very useful. For some purposes, it's essential. -- Walter M.
