In the couple of months I've been on advocacy, the dreamers, poets,
and armchair quarterbacks seem to have lots to say about FBSD.
Apparently, 'advocacy' is a cornucopia for issues and well-intended
solutions(sans any strategy for implementation).

Of course, as much as I anticipate any number of tips, ideas, or
occasional successes in support of FBSD, I see very little except
from, say, Greg(Lehey).

Let's see some real *SUPPORT* for FBSD!  Hell, I work for a company
with it's own UNIX.  Staff developers have free access to it and I
still managed to get 3 people in my group to go out and buy 2.2.7
and build cable-modem gateways in their homes.

If you want to advocate FBSD, play the role and market the product you
presumably enjoy using and *share the success!!!*   And for those
still intent on finding issues with FBSD, see Jordan's message above.
