To some this truly was art, but to others it completely shattered their comfortably numb state. As I followed the entire 5-CURRENT cycle, I found the image perfectly understandable. I wouldn't reply to this except that people need to be continually reminded that this list is not some perfect little machine spitting out exacting messages dealing with the status of FreeBSD-CURRENT, but rather, a wash of tens of thousands of messages written by individuals from all over the globe. Tied with high pressure situations such as the 5.3-RELEASE process, you should expect to see more highly offensive messages in the future. When you see another message like Alfred's, just take a deep breath, and turn the other cheek. Cheers, Pete...
