I don't see the difference between working on what I like to work on in FreeBSD and leading my dog (if I had one). It's just my choice because it is my time. If I'd be paid for working on FreeBSD, it'd be different. If I find the xmas tree controller more interesting than ZFS why should I work on ZFS? You assumption is that it matters for you on what I work, but it doesn't matter for me, so I could just work on what is good for you. Well, this entire thread is just utterly off-topic. harti
