Sorry a lot of you had to deal with the recent unfair criticisms.
He's gone and it's over now, all but the thanking.
On freebsd-newbies we've suffered this guy's antics for too long, but
in doing so we've learned a lot about what it means to be part of a
community. We discovered in each other a sense of membership and
responsibility that won't be influenced by the occasional bad seed.
Whether we gained that more quickly because of hard times, who knows.
Thanks for taking time to deal with those difficult emails the way you
did, and for retaining any cc: to -newbies in these unusual
circumstances. If any silent subscribers did have any little doubts
about the FreeBSD Project, I'm confident they have been set right now.
Everything you do and say sets a consistently fine example and
reassures us that we've come to the right place. While people like you
take the lead, people like us look forward to becoming people like you.
