I will concure(sp?) that the original posting has no business in Advocacy@freebsd.org. I also agree that his topic is definitely of subject. I further agree that using a more diplomatic approach does have it merits and at times can be more effective that the 'gunshot and dynamite' method. As I see this posting, this person is informing us of some rather important information, which we might want to take note of. The topic, while NOT belonging to 'advocacy', is of importance to those who advocacte *BSD. Personally I can recount many such stories, but this is not about me. I should finish by saying that while this person's information is important to those who advocate *BSD. There seems to be no one willing to 'step up to the plate' and deal with this information so that we might make effective use of it. best regards, Jessem.
