Yea.  I'm getting too grumpy for reasons that are outside the list.
Doug is aware of my concerns, and I'm sure he'll take them into
account as he moves forward.

Working with the OpenBSD folks and the NetBSD folks are worlds apart
in many ways.  This is both good and bad :-).  And it usually isn't
the person you are working directly with that will cause problems for
you.  Someone else in the project will freak at something that is
totally insane, or so it seems, and you'll have to deal.  However, all
projects are weird in some way, and the other BSDs are really no worse
than FreeBSD in this respect for most poeple.
