I'm so happy we now sound just like the Linux community.
</sarcasm>

Here's a thought...  if we have enough time to search GNATS to prove a
point, or to write lengthy messages *bitching* about *bitching*, maybe we
could set aside a wee bit of time to actually contribute to the project.

Note to any reader:  Make no mistake, I am not at all attempting to take
any side in this argument.  I am attempting to point out the foolishness
in the argument itself, and, furthermore, attempting to remind myself that
'maturity' was, at some point, a FreeBSD trait.
