That pesky post-traumatic stress syndrome thing? > Hey, in time, the night sweats and flashbacks will pass. :-) :-) No, it's been a matter of concern for some time, actually. David and I have been talking about -stable in hushed tones of "What the f*** are we going to do about this wart long-term? We can't keep doing this!" for at least a year. This may have been the last straw, but it was hardly the only (or even most significant) one. It's an ongoing maintainance headache and we really don't have the resources to do this, it's just that simple. Either we make the process simpler (ditch CVS) or we get a lot more people to work on FreeBSD and do it by brute force (yuck), but we can't keep doing it with what we've got now. Jordan
