Ironically, Jordan's desire for total control over FreeBSD -- in particular, the way it's marketed -- does parallel that of Theo de Raadt. Jordan has come close to saying that he'd rather see FreeBSD die than see it promoted with the sort of passionate advocacy it needs. We don't need splinter groups; we need to free FreeBSD from Jordan's peculiar preferences and obsessive need for control. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
