While I understand the desire to "protect FreeBSD", I don't think you're
being fair.

Jesse was providing useful information, and drew logical conclusions
from it.

If he'd said "and therefore you're all a bunch of arseholes", then it
might be time to wag a finger.

But so far, I think Jesse has been pretty reasonable.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
