One of the things in my experience with FreeBSD is that lack of repsonse more often means that everyone is hoping that someone else will pick up the ball and run with it, rather than the fact that no one thinks it's a good idea. Many of our most active committers are, well, overcommitted :) with their own projects and neat ideas. Note: generally if people think something's a _bad_ idea they'll let you know :-) I know it can be kind of frustrating for someone who's not a "known quantity" to be able to get something into the documentation/source tree/ports/whatever, but the key seems to be persistence over the long-term. fwiw, this idea sounds pretty good to me and I hope you pursue it. mcl
