A true apology is not riddled with excuses and ultimatiums. For future reference: http://extension.unl.edu/welfare/apology.htm Since I actually do want it fixed, and do want the attribution, and do care more about FreeBSD than getting a true apology, I will accept fixing the TODO as a show of good faith that re@ has accepted my delta as an actual fix. I do not accept the apology, as it's rather half-assed and coming from the wrong person. Fix the TODO, and forward me the commit log and I'll revert the commit, or just revert the commit yourself. I don't really care. -- - Alfred Perlstein - Research Engineering Development Inc. - email: bright@mu.org cell: 408-480-4684
