I think everyone agrees that bsdstats needs more visibility right from 
the virgin install. Since its not appropriate to include bsdstats in the 
sysinstall program. How about getting the RELEASE team to change the 
content of the default logon message of the day /etc/motd, to advocacy 
installing the bsdstats package. What do you think about this idea?
