Look, otherwise why don't we set up a freebsd-flames list? What we need 
now is more productivity and less bitching/whining/moaning/etc. I'm sure 
this has been said on numerous lists, numerous times.

Whose idea was this? Can we get a more structured plan about:

a) What the installation system would entail
b) A mock-up of what it'd look like
c) What packages would be installed for the desktop
d) What desktop system would be 'supported' (personally, I like the 
freedom to choose anyway, perhaps including screenshots of nicely 
configured available WMs is something to do if we're going to *really* 
*truly* do this)
e) Other related miscellany

Once a preliminary plan is drawn up, we can start determining how and 
what to implement. I know several people here (including myself) would 
feel free to donate bandwidth to the cause. Hell, I'd even donate a good 
bit of coding time in C ;).

How about we cut the crap and give structured criticisms instead of 
yakking about people flaming and then flaming back. The sarcasm is 
really unnecessary, folks.

P.S. If you feel the need to deem any of this as 'assinine' or determine 
that it'd be constructive to throw some sarcastic replies back to me, 
feel free to NOT send the reply to the list. I'm sure that nobody else 
cares if you think I'm an idiot.
