*BUT* we have no commitment on how much time the volunteer developers of
these items can give in the next X days.  With out time estimates, how
long do we wait??  It is simply a fact of live in a volunteer project
such as FreeBSD the scheduling that many of us are used to does not work.

Holding up 4.0-R in face if this, just isn't useful.
