I wonder if anyone subscribed to -questions besides me thinks that the
3.0R shouldn't have been made generally available.  It is allowing
total morons to destroy FreeBSD's reputation due to their incompetence.
 3.0R SHOULD be only installed by people with a freakin clue.  Not
total newbies.  It has resulted in a tremendous amount of noise on this
forum, because these newbies think they should be running the latest
and greatest.  They aren't reading the release notes or anything else.
Please don't let them continue.  Make 3.0R available only to those
willing to certify:

1. They are NOT using it in a production environment
2. They have extensive FreeBSD experience
3. They have extensive Unix System Admin experience
4. They realize 3.X is not yet supported
5. They are not Microsoft agents looking for an opportunity to bash any
non-Microsoft system

3.0R is NOT ready for prime time, i.e., it's not ready for newbies.


Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.
