1. Bradley M. Kuhn GNU's Not Unix

   I posted what I thought was a controversial post to !GNU #Bash mailing list. I wonder if silence is b/c it is or isn't: http://ur1.ca/4gwiv

     @fontana, #Bash has too many lines of code to justify a reimplementation from scratch. Besides, I'd use #Haskell rather than #OCaml.

     @bkuhn It doesn't seem controversial to me, while u do suggest a significant change, you explain and present it reasonably. Std op procedure

     @lukeshu, Yeah,you're right. For me,it's the most stressful part about !FaiF development; it's in fact why I never became a "real" developer

     Chet #Ramey answered my !GNU #Bash proposal. Non-committal on whether he'll take patch,but pointed me to read_history_range(). ur1.ca/4j8h8

     @bkuhn It looks like he'd take the patch, his concern seems to be "is it worth the effort to even do it?"
