I like change. Change is good and it keeps us on our toes. However,
some things should not be changed for the sake of change.

If /usr/bin/perl were no longer there, people would rather stick with
an older version of BSD than change all their scripts and the scripts
of their hosted clients.

If we're voting, I vote nay.
