I disagree.  It will provide a concrete example to anyone who wants to
smear the FreeBSD camp with the "closed developement" brush.

It just won't accomplish what Jordan wants it to.


For what it's worth, it takes two to play tennis.  If either participant
was willing to let the ball go out "on them", it would be over.  I've
let the ball go out on me in times past, so I know it's possible for
either Poul or Theo to simply choose to not reply.  The important
thing to get through your heads is that this is not a "win/lose"
situation, and the ball going out on you does not make you the loser.
