Many thanks, Ryan, for fixing the issue so quickly. It was a pleasure =
chatting with you on IRC, too. As I mentioned earlier, this week has =
been a good experience evaluating FreeBSD as the next platform for my =
company online training platform. It is clear that the quality and =
reachability of the community is a major asset of FreeBSD. Thank you for =
making me remember that the best of IT=E2=80=99s old days is not gone.
