Hi All, A whole bunch of things went through my mind as I read this thread, and I was going to write an essay, but it sounds like there's already a lot of this going on, so I'll just summarise: * I work for a research organisation. * For researchers to be productive they must have as much flexibility as possible * Too much process, and no one researches anything, they only have time to rehash. * I see FreeBSD as a research project * It is full of researchers, pushing technology in new and exciting ways * It has no commercial drivers demanding a larger market share. I have no real insight into how FreeBSD runs, but it sounds like an over burdening processes has be installed. If this is the case, then I also suspect that there has been more processes built over the top of these, in hopes that they will address the problems they initially caused. 2c from a dedicated FreeBSDer, Anthony To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
