I found while searching slashdot a link to a file listing all of the files,
and the total in the "windows 2000 source code" archive.
What really gets me here is that at the end it notes that windows 2000 source
code includes a grand total of 30915 files.
Now compare that to my research of creating a quick program to process a file
outputted by "ls -Rl > testfile; grep total testfile > newtestfile" which
then gives me a few thousand lines that say "total xxxx" then i went into
kwrite and did a replace all on "total " to ""...then i created a program to
add up those numbers. I then came up with a grand total of 252312 files.
Where does someone claim to have the source code to Windows 2000, and not even
have 100k files. 30915 compared to 252312(even if you did take out all the
other arch's wouldn't compare). This is most clearly a hoax, unless someone
can prove me otherwise by providing a count from the "real leaked source
code".
