The FreeBSD cvs tree isn't for personal development and I'm a bit miffed that Garret has been allowed to get away with putting in a personal tag. If it's not ready to go in the main development tree then it doesn't belong at all. We'll have a real mess if we all start creating personal branches. -- Paul Richards, Originative Solutions Ltd.
