I disagree with your changes but that's immaterial. To make widespread
changes w/o any review is contrary to the way a _GROUP_ project like this
works. Then to react as you have simply compounds the matter. I value the
contributions you make but you've got to work with folks. I don't know of
anyone involved in FreeBSD that has the right to say f*ck off; and that's
what I hear you saying.
