:How about sending the patch to the Technical Review Board, trb@ instead.

Getting bored sitting on your buns? It's already gone to core and,
frankly, I think core is the proper forum now that Warner has declared
it a security issue (when it obviously isn't. How easy is it to do
an ipfw add 2 allow all from any to any? It's ludicrous to call it
a security issue).
I really don't mind people disagreeing, but I do mind it when people
believe that the proper solution is for Matt Dillon to spend a man week
fixing a major API that he didn't write instead of comitting an 8 line
patch that deals with the issue well enough so sysads don't have to
pull their hair out every time it happens.
As I said before, I have no problem with the patch being removed once
the API is fixed, but I am NOT the guy who should be rewriting the API
and, frankly, it is inappropriate for anyone to suggest that I should
be if they themselves are not willing to sit down in front of a
keyboard and come up with a committable solution of their own. So far
all I've heard are utterly trivial complaints from people who aren't
willing to code up a solution themselves.
