David,

Each local users group is an independant entity. These groups are not 
sanctioned or blessed by the FreeBSD project proper. That said, the
reply you recieved was not called for at all. This kind of behavior does
nothing to help the group as a whole but is out of the control of the
project leaders.

*That* said, you just spammed all these random people who you considered
to be FreeBSD leaders with an unwanted email over what really ammounts
to a personal squabble. Please refrain from doing this.

-Bill

I did not get a reply (it turns out that he had a hard disk crash and lost the message).  I sent a followup message and copied freebsd.org because I did not know if the CHicago group was defunct.  I received this extremely rude reply from the person at FreeBSD.
