You can request that it be earmarked for other purposes. So, if you don't feel comfortable supporting the FSF (which disparages the FreeBSD effort regularly on its Web pages and in live presentations), say so! It might be worthwhile to send the message. Could someone pass the word to the Apache folks and others who don't worship the Holy GPL? ;-) --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
