For [1], it /might/ have nothing to do with a bridge per se, but we'll have yet to see how that investigation will come out. > If things like bridge or lagg were actually broken in some non-edge > case, hard to replicate way then it would receive its due attention. For [2], it's a fairly known regression that was reported both on the lists and to me privately (basically, users asking WTF?); and all of those situations were observed during the pre-11.x -> 11.x transition. Sadly, regressions happen now and then; there's nothing wrong with drawing attention to them, even if it seems "disingenuous" to some of us. We all want FreeBSD to become better, no? Peace, ./danfe
