I've got some more flames to deflect :-) Dennis, comments like this are the reasons you don't make friends on the list. I hope you aren't in a customer facing role in your job, cause I wouldn't want to have to deal with quips like this from my vendor. Anyway... That said, I do respect your views on closed vs open source (although I personally disagree with you), but you don't need to be so damn righteous either (not saying the other side isn't). Lastly, you seem like a competant guy with the code, you identify problems with various things, and even come up with fixes for them. Yet you have never filed a pr with your fixes? I checked, and unless you are using another email address, you have never opened a pr about a problem or submitted a patch this way. What gives? -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
