Hi R-C,

You have definitely blogged an interesting piece! I hardly think that 
Dag's coherent rebuttal regarding a few points he disagrees with and a 
readers mail to advocacy@, while digesting your article, demonstrate how 
aggressive FreeBSD developers can be, as you state in that post.

It seems more like legitimate debate going on to me ;-)

FYI, the FreeBSD Foundation has not yet signed off on the Flash 
re-distribution agreement with Adobe and there is no guarantee that they 
will. While I don't see any strong reasons why it shouldn't be signed, 
installing Flash on FreeBSD is painless and there might not be a great 
deal of reasons to change the way the system currently works.

best,
-matt
