I made, what I thought, was a simple suggestion that I thought might help a lot of people. As I don't have much time these days to do any development for FreeBSD (a fact I very much regret BTW), I thought at least I could contribute an idea. I apologize to anyone who felt I was whining about the state of affairs. I was just trying to use myself as a case in point. I thought, since this is a volunteer effort, that people should feel it was their place, indeed their responsibily, to contribute however they could. I didn't have any bug reports to submit or code to donate, so I donated a thought. My only concern was for the future of the project. In the future, I'll try to be less concerned. -Ben Greenwald To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
