You must be unaware of the drama over Matt's commit bit, or actually, lack thereof. While I quite like the idea of a FreeBSD Committer T-shirt, I would feel strange wearing mine while Matt was denied one. Dangerous talk follows: Even though I saw it all happen (in the public lists), I don't understand how it is still unresolved. People are being too quiet or indirect about this issue, even with the current unofficial position statement. I think it's festering. Maybe it's time for a do or die, cure or death operation. A let-it-all-hang-out public slanging match, perhaps? I don't expect a vote, but I like to know what is happening. Stephen.
