Talking about PRs, I see more than 1000 open PRs on the kernel alone: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi?category=kern&severity=&priority=&class=&state=open&sort=none&text=&responsible=&multitext=&originator= This includes a request for change regarding dynamic sysctls I submitted back in Feb. I understand that FreeBSD is an entirely voluntary project, So people can't be blamed for having so many open PRs. But common sense tells me that this is not good. I'll shut up now. -Arun To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
