I support this proposal entirely. While I think all of us appreciate the work that Wolfram has done over the years, I've also fielded a number of complaints during the same period that he's a "write-only webmaster" and doesn't appear to generate much in the way of strategic roadmaps or guidelines. You only hear from him when he's angry about something. That's perhaps understandable given the constraints on his time, but hardly helps to make FreeBSD's web presence more of a group effort and hopefully also advance the state of our content. I think we've definitely reached the point where we need to move beyond the centrist webmaster view and into a broader working group. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
