This user base is really a huge problem. The real problem here is that they're saying "trouble finding people". They are *right* here - there is too small number of FreeBSD'ers. That's our real problem - we should increase our userbase. Our userbase is the problem, not their's userbase. Until there's more of us, we can't fight successfully with them, even if our weapon is stronger. -- WBR, Vadim Goncharov.
