Are you paying attention? You really are an arrogant prat aren't you. How do you know it's the same one? Have you asked him? Let me guess.. you're *assuming* aren't you. That's OK, I understand you want to assume. How about we all just assume you're somebody we don't want anywhere near this mailing list? It's supposed to be constructive, and if you can't offer something, as other people have told you - to be blunt, (and I *mean* blunt) - F**k off. Now. > I passed on the info to DG on how to fix it.

You must be *so* special to have work that is that secret. If your employer really doesn't want to contribute to the Open Source community, why shoud you expect the Open Source community to contribute to you and your company profiting? I've watched you in the last few days be incredibly arrogant, incredibly rude, overly obnoxious, and the conclusion I've come to is that FreeBSD would be better off without people like you. You employer is obviosuly going to benefit from FreeBSD, but I suspect that they might want to employ somebody else to handle that project. I suspect that a .zip of your mails to this list so far, sent to your employers might possibly assist them in that decision. I suspect that the moment your employer and you are both more open to contributing to the project, you might just *possibly* find the project is more open to helping you out of a tight spot. If you demand that things are done for your benefit, and you aren't prepared to offer anything back rather than your rude, obtuse, arrogant, obnoxious crap, go use another operating system. Please. No, really. Are you still reading this? Why? I don't want to see any more of your obnoxious posts, and I suspect that nobody else on this list is interested in seeing your posts until you have decided to start being valuable to the project, in the same way you demand others to become valuable to your project. I don't assume I'm valuable to this project, neither should you. Perhaps that's the difference between us. -- Paul Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
