It may not be a democracy, but it's also not a monarchy. :-) If recent core events have taught us anything at all, it's that nobody in core escapes being accountable to the developers at large and if the consensus opinion supports a given change then that change should be made. Anyone backing out such a change on his own recognizance will find his own commit privileges somewhat emperiled, and that goes for *anyone* in committers. Bruce only gets "50x the vote" on occasion by generally being the only one to comment at all. People should not take that as indicative of any special powers and, last I checked, Bruce was quite vulnerable to Kryptonite. :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
