I begin this mail in excuses for my words and my english. What quind of fools are the people who made the iso images. Where are the the latest kde's family packages, where is the last mozilla browzer package, where are the most important packages to make a good server or a good workstation which speaks english language (the computer language). I am not racist and not "anti -programmeur" but why such a lot of packages for the japanese, the russians, the korean, i know their alphabets are not the european alphabet but i think people in this countrys speaking english. Why such a lot of packages for ruby and perl and in the end, why so obsolte packages. I think, but perhaps i am the only one(i do not think so) the future of freebsd is in the individuals workstation and in three iso images you have sufficiant place for the important packages (in my opinion). Perhaps the "iso imagers" are "politicians" and want to please the gnome users and the programers but in the 4.4 install image there where sufficient packages to make a basic workstation. So why in the 4.5 there is not "apache; mozilla and kde". In the end, i repeat, i am a fan of Freebsd,and i think it is more simple to install and configure that the latest linux distributions and i hope it take a major place in free operating systems, in particular in schools, and "administrations". I do not want to hurt any one of you with this "coup de gueule", but remember that in france the local telecommunications are not free and uses the ports is expensive. see you.
