RE: Re[2]: {bb} SCO binary

["Coates, Sean" <sc50173@imcnam.sbi.com>]

Wouldn't it just be easier if the bb and bbd binaries were available from a
central site?  Especially if it was the same site as the Big Brother
source.... Sean & Rob could collect the binaries from volunteers, etc...
this would eliminate the need to be chasing C compilers and attempting to
install one of the largest Gnu products... after all, BB is supposed to be
about simplicity...
