I do not wish to be pulled into this horseshit.  I have received exactly
0 $CURRENCY.  Every time I have run a donation run every single cent
ends up in the appropriate account.  There are plenty of sets of eyes on
the stuff I have done, contrary to KD85 accounting.

I find it more than unfortunate that I am being mentioned by name in
Wim's diatribe.

That is what people say about the nice neighbor that is a serial killer
or a child molester.  I thought I knew Wim too but apparently I was
wrong.

Theo provided it; you didn't like it and took Wim's side because "you
have known him for years".

Besides a website with some random bank statements isn't what I exactly
call evidence.  That whole story is contorted and makes no sense.

Maybe because people feel that their trust was fucked with.  I for one
pore hours of my time into OpenBSD for the total amount of $0; -$ with
costs I incur for the project that unlike some other people I don't
charge back to the project.  Maybe as a developer it stings to hear that
someone close to the project was less than honest.  Maybe that felt like
taking candy from a baby or stealing a purse from an elderly lady.

For outsiders this is just some drama.  For insiders this is a
violation of trust and a slap to the face.

Let me show you:
