I don't like to just heap praise on you all the time and get branded as someone who never does much for FreeBSD and just sits back and uses the system, however that is pretty much what I do. (apart from the heaps of praise anyway) Rather than flood you with mail all the time saying what a great job you are doing I prefer to just stay out of the way and let you get on with it. However, rest assured that I am not alone, and a great many people (in my ignorant and biased opionion) think that you are doing GREAT THINGS. I don't like to let morale drop though and it sounds as though it is. Just because we don't instantly jump on the thread and hurl abuse doesn't mean that we don't wish it to stop. Usually hurling abuse just continues it :-) I must agree with you though. This is a volunteer effort. Don't give people who dedicate so much of their free time a hard time. enough rambling, but don't be disheartened, I believe you are doing good things and I'm not the only one.
