I know we are all a little frustrated with some of the local commits, but
remember:

  "praise in public, criticize in private".

This is a good management dictum.  I try to follow it and though I often
fail, I try.  Let's all keep in mind that the only reward most ports
maintainers/committers do indeed get is the occasional bit of praise.

Thanks.
