Two things I'm always wondering about when this topic comes up: |
| 11 |
- is there really a need for USE=client? In most cases people request |
| 12 |
to exclude the server part, can't remember ever seeing a request to |
| 13 |
exclude the client. |
| 14 |
- assuming we ignore the USE=client thing, how many things actually |
| 15 |
depend on the server part of say mysql or openldap? |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 23 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
