I donnot love STREAMS at all and I just shit on them.
I did write all kind of sockets and STREAMS based application programs
and resusable softwares that are actually incorporated into several
product at the Company I work, and not only for UNIX systems.
I do know the silliness of STREAMS, but have to use them when the only
other solution are sockets crappily emulated on STREAMS, or when the
only available interface is STREAMS.
I always use _native_ services instead of shitty emulations.
If the subject had been to claim that raw devices or any other really
used facility asked by users will never be incorporated in Linux,
I would have complained the same way.

I just wrote what Companies have to do if they want to stay in busyness.
Why should it be different for Free Softwares and especially for Linux ?
