So you agree that you and Dennis have some legal and/or moral ground to stand on in DEMANDING that I and others donate our own personal time to you for free, simply because you're incapable of fixing something your- self? This argument has NOT been about whether the fxp driver needs to be fixed, but rather whether Dennis or anyone can DEMAND time from FreeBSD developers as opposed to asking them politely or proposing some remuneration so they can afford to dedicate time to an individual problem. I think my stance on this is pretty clear, but just in case you haven't gotten the message, those of you who think you have some RIGHT to DEMAND my time can stuff it. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
