Bah. The only fucking thing that you have to do to be UNIX (tm) is to run a broken test-suite and get a certificate.
It just means you have implemented a number of functions the way you were supposed to. It doesn't mean your operating system is relevant or important to the market or to the computing field in general.
Linux *is* one of the most important operating systems being developed today because:
1. It adopts early technologies even in draft-phase
2. It's helping to extend POSIX
3. Its fast development model is bringing solutions for problems that bleeding-edge hardware introduces
So, that 'it's not UNIX' doesn't mean anything.
