Will you accept interoperability between two FreeBSD boxes?  A
FreeBSD box and a NetBSD box?

No, I've just implied that I don't personally have the ability
to put together an interoperability test bed that tests against
non-FreeBSD boxes, without a lot of effort.

Is FreeBSD/FreeBSD interoperability acceptable?

It's like posting a driver for a SCSI card that was written
from the specifications, without a card in hand.

Except that his code is *already* in the tree, so it's not
like I'm asking anyone to commit anything that doesn't at
least make the status quo better.


For heaven's sake!  *It has only been 3 days* since the code
was threatened!  What do you expect *in 3 days*!?!
