Doesn't work for me. If one guy writes notebook for MS and one guy writes
vi for Linux you want me to consider the MS guy part of the group but you
don't want me to consider the vi guy part of the group. Likewise I'm
supposed to consider the OE team part of the group but not the GAIM folks.

Does RH come with a browser, is it part of the distribution? Does the
browser dev team count the same way for both groups?

What about printer drivers, MS doesn't write all the printer drivers on the
W2K CD's but they are certainly part of the product, no?
