This has to be a troll. Let's ponder this... The user states, "I have been using the OS for over a year now", Hmmm seems to me that the user should KNOW the answer to, "and how come FreeBSD is not as popular as RH/Fedora?" In addition - using it for a year now, this would make one think that the user would have read the cert thread of not even a month ago. But let's really notice how the user unfolds the message. Starts off nice, curious to a point and even showing that the user wishes to possibly contribute to the foundation as a whole. Once the user "softens" the audience, delivers the one-two punch tactic of the evil creature known as a troll. However, this one don't look like Shrek ... Just my comical way of looking at things. -- Best regards, Chris A budget is spending $15.00 on gas to drive to a shopping mall to save $4.30 on a 20 pound turkey.
