We could for instance inscribe it with "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." </IRONY> Kip, If you had managed to delude anybody to think you wanted peaceful cooperation between the projects, this email from you probably dispelled that notion pretty fast. For the last ten years, the NetBSD, OpenBSD and FreeBSD projects have had a tacit agreement not to post propaganda and inflamatory accusations to each others email lists (what project members do in their own projects is of course a different matter). I, and I think other members of FreeBSD, would appreciate it if the members of DragonflyBSD would adhere to this peace-keeping rule as well.
