  I agree.  Remember Matt was also the only one that gave a thorough
and timely review for Jeff's new scheduler framework (including many
bugfixes and patches!!!).  That's but one of many helpful peer reviews
that he has consistently done.

  I think FreeBSD has a tendency to fall into a "gentlemen's" club mode
where we are all supposed to act like we are sitting in an elegant
house drinking tea and have to speak in low monotomous tones.
It's far from it and contention very often is productive!

  The userbase certainly should at least know the motivations and facts
behind the latest yank of Matt's commit bit.
