Luckily, with this post to the mailing list you can join the ranks of doing
nothing positive for the project. Congrats!
In case you didn't know (which you probably don't, being an ignorant flamebait
poster and all), BSDi: employed many talented developers, funded or subsidized
various *BSD support events, donated hardware for *.FreeBSD.org, sent numerous
volunteer developers to conferences at zero or low cost, and distributed quite
a bit of hardware to developers who otherwise wouldn't have proper test
environments. Thats just to name a few things...
WRS still is doing many of the things that WCCDROM/BSDi did for the project
and the ones that they've stopped doing should simply look like a good
opportunity to others who want to step up in the community.

ps. even ignoring the improper punctuation, "didnt nothing positive" is
improper English, in the future you might want to use a phrase like
"did not do anything positive" or "did nothing positive". hope this
helps.
