I think they're rather sick of being asked.. :-)

My own conversations with them have been rather more polite, but I do
understand that the circumstances that led to other ports being done
_at all_ were very unique ones and that they have no interest in doing
any additional "non strategic" ports.  Compared to their DOS/Jaguar/3DO
base, FreeBSD and Linux put together don't even register as a blip.
