I've seen some core members admit they no longer read freebsd-current because of the high S-N ratio. So sending something to freebsd-current assuming all Core or TRB members will see it is in fallacy. > Or could it be, just by chance, that I recognized that nobody on > core (or the TRB) would have enough information to answer the very > simple question: "Is there a significant use of these bits which > we are currently unaware off ?", and therefore decided to poll a > larger audience ? I think you presume to know too much about what all the Core and TRB members know. I think you should be pushing this agenda (so publicly implying full authority to do this), only after consulting with one of Core/TRB of your intentions. > (If you answer this correctly David, you win a little yellow rubber > mat you can stomp on next time you get upset about somebody not > "following procedures") It is well known you prefer drive-by commits, ride roughshod over, and acting unilaterally. I don't think all of the project does. phkBSD is around the other corner, thanks. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
