But I could be mis-informed. I think you're misinformed. As far as I can recall, the last 2 or 3 initiatives have not dissolved in acromony of any sort. That would have represented a far greater investment of energy than was actually expended. :) As I said in my earlier posting on this toic, the plain and simple fact of the matter is that nobody has any time to put into something like this, just judging by past results and current observations to the effect that everyone seems to be just barely keeping their heads above water on smaller scale projects a lot closer to home. Unless someone has something more substantive than just another new rehash of old ideas to bring to the table, it's probably a waste of time to even debate it (yet again). - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
