They're easy to find from www.freebsd.org, and contain numerous extensive threads with all the details. If you _do_ look for these, you will easily see how (a) the apparently hostile responses you got were, in fact, quite mild and (b) why nobody is eager to start another discussion on the subject. I think the correct way of asking "why doesn't someone roll PAO into current" is "I have taken aspect X of APM/PCMCIA/whatever support from PAO, and tidied it up for CURRENT -- the patch is attached, please test".
