I am not at all surprised that he has a large number of patches in the queue due to the amount of work that he puts in on ATA (mostly unheralded). There is certainly plenty of work to go around in this area, but no doubt needs careful coordination due to the complexity of the work involved -- it has seemed, in the past, that seemingly-trivial changes break old, brain-damaged, ATA hardware. Please, folks, let's try to work together on these really hard problems, and respect that fact that coordinating lots of changes are always going to require extra work -- but it will get FreeBSD a lot further along towards its goals in the long run. mcl
