Just wondering if anyone out here ever used open source software to port a program or tool to a specific O.S.
I've done so myself with Apache, Samba, OpenSSL, openSSH, gzip, zip/unzip, bzip, md5 and some other stuff. Interesting was getting some to work on SCO UNIX 3.2V4.2. That's an O.S. from a few generations ago.
Of course lots of people may use open source programs in 'ready to use' provided format.
