Which was one of my points. :) The best interface designers are often lousy programmers, if programmers at all, thus a designer/programmer team is required. The FreeBSD development model does not *appear* to support such teams very well; everybody wants to "own" their project and the designer/programmer arrangement can so easily turn into a master/slave arrangement....
