Howdy,

Any conjecture/knowledge on why HP put the Jumbo's in the POSIX
namespace instead of MPE/iX?  Seems to me that when they
implemented in 5.0 it was supposed to be optional.  There was
a discussion somewhere (on the list?) during the 4.5 era regarding
putting in a "switch" to turn it off.  That got shutdown for technical
reasons which I do not recall.  Anyhow, so howcome I got parta
my data herd in my barn and part in my neighbor's barn?
