Yes - i missed this "monthly" and sorry for this.

It would be very nice for people to just say about this at the beginning.

All i suggested was that 5-10 thousands are needed to get real advert on 
main site, which i repeated lots of times. Finally it was confirmed!

Wouldn't be much easier to just tell this instead of flamewars, attacks 
and using me to relieve one's personal mental problems?

Not for me, as i don't care about such kind of answers, but for everyone 
else reading this?

Or - completete nonsense - talking about lost opportunity 
of sponsoring.

Do you really mean i have enough power to just dumb any sponsors 
(potential, not "potential") by writing a post on public mailing list?

Even at first post i wrote that i'm not FreeBSD owners and they will 
decide.

Maybe if i would be the man that gives 50000$ PER YEAR i would have such a 
power. But i rather think not.
