Andy, I haven't seen/used your software, but I appreciate your work too. I followed the discussion about your software here and it seemed to be a very interesting software. I wanted to wait to look at it until I have the need for such a solution, or until your software gained a feature (instant file system replication) I like to see used in a specific scenario here. At Feb 10 you talked about FREP which is very interesting (and something which I have an use for), but you talked about it as a "Proof of concept", this is something which typically doesn't get used on a production system (and the place where I would use it is a very important system, it needs stable software, not a proof of concept). Unfortunately not everybody has the time to look at interesting things if they aren't ready for production use. I think there are more people than only me which read this list and have an @freebsd.org address which waited for an official mail from you to current@ with a "Hey, I have a HA patchset here, and I think it's stable enough to get integrated into the official source." to look more closely at it. It's sad to see you in a mood where you say this will not happen. > To be fair, though, I think giving the email a few hours for people to > respond is a little short - many people are not in your timezone, and > are sleeping.. many are busy working, and aren't reading this list until > they get home.. many people, like myself, get the mails, but skip past > them to the 'work' emails, then come back to them when they get a chance..

Maybe we can convince him to take a break and to think a little bit about it. After a while he maybe reconsiders his decision.
