May I suggest then that you post briefly to that effect on freebsd-questions? There are some who have attacked various elements of how things happen on -questions lately, and although there are problems that need to be addressed it is always useful (and uplifting :) to hear words of praise for the things that go well. > I am overwhelmed by the volume of the mail I receive from the > freebsd-questions list.

One of my main sources for learning about freebsd was reading -questions and trying the stuff that people suggested.
