And I'm annoyed if such virtually undocumented software where a mission statement that is evidently a long shot from reality is all there is to documentation. I'm really annoyed if I am to be the beta tester (no matter of which distribution, FreeBSD, random Linux, whatever) without my informed consent. I haven't yet checked if there are knobs in the FreeBSD ports to prevent this crap from hitting my system and continue using FAM instead, I'd say there should be. -- Matthias Andree
