It's been in my tradition for Unix developement since 1986 when I 
first joined comp.unix

anyhow, I think this is silly.

If you saw what Warner and others have to do to in battling the Linux 
hordes, you'd also be looking to remove all the trivial complaints 
that are made as excuses to not use BSD.

I think that we have to make a conscious decision as a project to
acknowledge the position we find ourselves in WRT 3rd party software
and make moves to lower the barriers to entry as much as we can.

for what it's worth I'm solidly with Warner on this one.
