At All. Correction: Other than the these two things: a) Paul Vixie is a cofounder, chairman and CEO of MAPS LLC and at same time CTO of MFN (parent of above.net) b) Dave Rand is a cofounder and executive director of MAPS LLC and at same time EVP of MFN. Don't get me wrong, I like MAPS and I think ORBS/MAPS flamewars are silly. (And certainly hoping I'm not starting one now). But a little bit of honesty never hurt anyone, and its a bit disingenious to say that there's absolutely nothing in common between Above/MFN and MAPS. -alex
