Hi Glen, 

thanks for the update..

Your work (and the work of others of course) is one of the main reasons why i use and promote the use of FreeBSD. One of the last truly engineered Operating Systems.

Thank you for your work, you probably can guess it already, i truly appreciate it.

I'll store the fireworks till wednesday then..

Sydney
