The "constitutional procedures" just stomp on things because the few who complain the loudest drown out those who silently or not-so-loudly agree. Ask yourself: in the last 6 months, how many things have been shot down and what has survived? From my point of view, not much progress has been achieved. As far as I can see, FreeBSD has reached critical mass and for each new developer coming on board, one drops off or goes inactive. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
