For as long as I've used it, FreeBSD has been delivering tools, not policy. I have been very pleased with this, and have heard the same from most people I've talked to. The debate, for me at least, is not about telnetd, as such. It is about whether we are going to start shipping the system with policies, not just tools. If so, then I will simply downgrade to the old install scripts locally, and stop nagging. But in the mean time, I'd like to express a strict dislike with doing a mostly worthless alteration to the system, which has the added impact of being a policy decision.
