	I'm glad we're still having the discussion about HFS support :)
	Is there any tool or technique to help port BSD source to Linux?  Perhaps a
technical layer or a methodology?  Would the BSD people know more about it,
since they've ported a lot of Linux drivers to BSD?
	On a license tangent, is the current revised BSD license incompatible with
GPL?  This url says that it is compatible:
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/bsd.html.  Secondly, does Darwin use the new or
old BSD license?
	Thanks.
