Yes, I noticed that Terry was strangely silent on that whole paragraph
of mine where I described his previous attempts at squirming out of
producing any actual, usable code when asked for it in the past.  Not
that I expected him to come up with a credible excuse for his antics
with Poul-Henning (or lack of response to John).

Or would Terry like to argue now that submitting whitespace changes in
lieu of filesystem patches which actually apply against any reasonably
current version of FreeBSD was part of his overall strategy, and that
it was up to us to simply *intuit* his intent from the form and
structure of the whitespace changes? :-)

Terry has been asked so many times to either put up or shut up when it
comes to technical matters, but when we actually ASK FOR HIS CODE we
find again and again that the emperor not only lacks clothing but
defends his nakedness as a paragon of sartorial splendor, citing OUR
lack of vision as the problem if we can't see the fine tailored
stitching and gleaming golden braid of his outfit for ourselves.

Terry, look, you're naked.  Go home and put some clothes on, please!
A naked hacker is generally an ugly sight. :-)
