[I hope no one takes this message as spam.]

With all the complaints and hardships people come across when upgrading
(particularly across the 3.x -> 4.x boundary), I'm sure it sometimes looks
like no one is ever satisfied, and the whole mess deserves to be sent to
/dev/null.

I, however, would like to congratulate the FreeBSD (and, by proxy, the
contributing code from all the *BSDs and even Linux, in parts) team for
their hard work.  The upgrade worked for me.  Yes, it required some
tweaking, part of which resulted from me not knowing something, or
thinking I knew it better than the people who write UPDATING, but it
_WORKED_.  That in itself is amazing.  Approximately two hundred megabytes
of source code compiled without a hitch, and upgraded a system in
situ.  AMAZING.

So give yourselves a pat on your backs, and take yourself out for a
celebratory beer sometime.  :)

Thanks!
