Hi Mike,

The paragraph above worries me. I've always had a sense that the people
determining directions for FreeBSD are people who are "abiding by a
code", in a sense -- that they know The Right Thing and try to keep
things as pure as possible.

Is this a misperception? If the vast majority of users wanted something
that was an incredibly bad idea, would it be adopted within FreeBSD or
turfed out?

(The above has no bearing on the current topic, nor anything discussed
 recently.)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
