Fellow committers, let's have a look at the 5.0 planned roadmap:

1) KSE

KSE is a joke at best. Is one of those over-engineered ideas that will never be finished. Too bad, it looked good some months ago.

2) GEOM

GEOM is another ego trip for Poul-Henning Kamp. He won't let anyone touch it or improve it. Another piece of code that will rot, like phkmalloc and devd.

3) devfs and devd

Like Bruce Evans, I don't see what the advantage of having this is. Another ego trip Poul?

4) UFS2

Unlike other parts of FreeBSD, UFS2 is now a reality, kudos to you Mr. McKusick.

5) gcc + toolchain

Until Troll Glass brings us TenDRA, we'll have to do with Gah! Nu's proprietary software. Thankfully, we have Mr. O'Brien on board to take care of it. Also Mr. Kabaev as well.

6) Ports

The ports people have done an excellent job, kudos to them.

7) PowerPC port

Little progress in this area, come on Benno, you can do better.

8) IA-64

Mr. LNUX Torvalds thinks it's not good, so it must be a heck of a cpu. As we all know, Linux is pure hore sh*t.

9) RAIDframe

Pathetic!!!! Those RAIDframes are *crap*. Scott, not only you fscked up with the release, but your patches are crap!

Sincerely,
          Elcott Song, RE
