The 14 times I've mentioned this I think you're taking a small jab rather more harshly than it was intended. All I meant by this was a reference to the usual refrain (which has been going on for years) about people sending enhancement requests or bug fixes to the mailing lists rather than using send-pr. I and several other folks make an effort to scoop these things out of the air when we see them, but if nobody happens to be looking at the moment then you can pretty much kiss whatever it was goodbye and that's a shame - it's a rare soul indeed who goes looking back through the mailing list archives for lost submissions given the daily volume of the mailing lists. With a PR you'll at least eventually have your request looked at again once or twice by our resident PR archaeologists. :-) Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
