FreeBSD needs more mature code management to restrict idealists, eg: - src/ bsd tar : bad code rushed in too soon to replace Gnu (I filed fixes). - ports/mail/majordomo : Deleted as mature! An immature reason. - ports/print/acroread9 deleted for security (so use chroot) & as Adobe support ceased (so use compat/). Government would fine me lots of money & close down the company if I don't continue use of it. - Those last two I will need to maintain outside FreeBSD.org.
