In many cases, Terry's solutions to the problems that he is trying to solve aren't the ones we want to adopt. There are far more instances where Kirk McKusick and other people in-the-know have objected to the direction that Terry wants to take us than there are in favor. Terry's unwillingness to carefully explain/justify the changes that he proposes in a manor that reasonable kernel developers can understand has further resulted in a serious lack of trust. For these reasons it's the unanimous opinion of the core team that Terry not be given commit privileges. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe current" in the body of the message
