Hi all,
I've got the compiler on my -current partition hosed (I did a make
install at a time when it was unstable, and now it dies when
recompiling -current), so I decided to re-base it with 5.1.
That's when I discovered an unpleasent issue: it could not mount

Hi!
I want to propose a simple substitution for ACLs. No, here
is no patch yet but I'm ready and willing to do it. The reason
why I want to discuss it first is that this is a Political Thing.
And if the Core Team decides that it's a Bad Thing, I suppose
it will never get commited to the system.

I've been reading recently some stories about the licensing
issues and that brought me to an interesting conclusion:
