If I add up the person-hours expended on fortune related drama over the 22 years I've been involved in the project then I quickly come to the conclusion that it should go. For as long as I can remember, it has been *the* drama lightning rod for the project. With regret, I'm in the 'move to ports' camp on this. The whole thing, including tips. However, I'd be in favor of something like having freebsd-tips be offered as a default post-install package in the installer. -- Peter Wemm - peter@wemm.org; peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; KI6FJV UTF-8: for when a ' or ... just won\342\200\231t do\342\200\246 [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCAAdFiEEBgrA0Vr/vfNVuPoUNdaXCeyAngQFAloV3z8ACgkQNdaXCeyA ngRUdAf/dTYKS/gwPptZUm41+yH9UVr+hXO76geAfy6Zw5jpeYv6PTXMYobVgr0Z 15q1z/C9vG4dA3vv9tuaaHN8/B2FKHBYO1I3mC0GYP6FZZXJYQsR/UvCS9vuYOWQ vBr/Py+sVDBVFYgArKQ8BaMAkq7OtnLnxzowP/2XbkZSpNB5D9iSKlPBFixyDgYF YX2AXjsY+jBtGAesBPogoaIcB4lUzJOquOaArGnx/nFMg6CRUxplAD4wM1L9mjgL wbxKY/xH55YptsK2p+clIawyNRNWXaUxgJR0a41P7KhUKGfXwRmuhii/7NtTHTcj aN3yZMwq+ztVbvQUDv5Wxq/8odB6EA== =foVv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
