I've been fairly critical of some of their expanded NT coverage (I think NT coverage is just fine, but I'll go to Windows World or something if that's what I want to see and not USENIX) and it would have been churlish of me to criticise their decisions without being willing to get involved in the decision-making process myself. > wonder about a guy who is *always* refered to as "maddog" (John also seems > to be the EXACT image the younger generation has of UNIX! - quite > funny IMO, with the big beard and all). :-) He doesn't just seem to be, he IS. In fact, I think he's one of the original Unix hacker prototypes. :-) John's a good guy - we'd also be in good hands with him, but I've no idea how many spaces on the ballot there are. I haven't received my ballot yet - perhaps we're not allowed to vote for ourselves. ;) Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
