PathScale is slowly open sourcing and porting some of our core

interested in PathDB.  Months ago we gave a few FBSD developers
private access to the source, but never received any feedback.  Now
we're asking more people to please test and tell us what you think.
Maybe noone gave you feedback because you are a douchbag ?

I mean:
Promise - Give us a hand in testing and improving and we'll
relicense to a more permissive license.
What kind of a fucked up way of getting free development done on
your shitty little "commercially supported" product is this ?

Are you on crack ?
Can someone in the FreeBSD community please talk with this guy. If you're going to send a snotty email at least be brave enough to do it publicly..

fwiw.. I never said free anywhere in my email.. It's assumed testing has a reciprocal benefit assuming we fix bugs. I've spoken with 5-10 people in the BSD community and most are supportive of our idea.. They of course wanted the BSD license from the start, but to me this is a conservative approach which I saw as a win/win.. So honestly am I on crack?
