Can we stop the thread here please? You are not contributing anything positive to the discussion. And anybody else that doesn't have anything positive to add to this and any other thread please refrain from posting. Developers can say whatever they want, OpenBSD is their project. Actually, it's Theo's project. But everybody else please stop the insanity. Nobody is whining or trolling here. Except those that insist in calling names and posing as mean. Probably because they think it's cool to be mean in the OpenBSD mailing list. Guess what. You only look stupid. Just because developers pose as mean doesn't grant you any right to do so. It doesn't mean it's right either. Instead of replying and replying, and bashing the newcomers, could you please SHUT UP! and hack?. There would be no long whining and trolling threads if everybody thought before hitting "reply" and preferably ignored the supposedly trolls' and whiners' posts. To Karel and the rest asking legitimate questions, don't take offense. Developers can't invest time in teaching, or writing roadmaps, or todo lists. Period. Stop arguing or giving ideas. Nobody is listening. And don't even think of taking offense from the rest. Sadly, those "mean" posts are the result of a trend that started some years ago, from the newcomers by the way. P.S. Sorry Darren for directing it to you. Nothing personal! ;-) You just happened to be the last poster. -- Gerardo Santana
