Jordan, I could just as well dismiss YOUR protestations as "aimless whining" if my goal were to attempt to trivialize and/or end the discussion with nothing resolved. Part of my purpose here is to see whether Walnut Creek actually WILL get off its duff and do something, or if the investment must come from without and be financed by the sale of an alternative release of the software. This would hurt your employer, but unless things turn around, it may be the ONLY way to prevent FreeBSD from sinking into obscurity. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
