This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_002B_01C0FC4B.474F4CE0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit We are all rather busy here and only have a short period of time each day to devote to working messages from the mailing list. I for one am not your on-call Tech Support person that is going to throw my time away sitting waiting with baited breath for a question to show up on an IRC channel or a chat module on a website whenever it's convenient for _you_ to post one. The store-and-forward mechanism of e-mail makes it so that I can answer questions when it's convenient for _me_. If you really need answers straight away then there's phone tech support available for FreeBSD for a fee.

All it takes is some code in the html source of a page and a few files. I can organize it all for you, just reply back if you think it's a good idea.
