Hey there Tomasz, please stay with the project, focus on the code, let yourself and the project grow, do not get distracted. We are all tired of the politics, fake divisions, ideologies, and omnipresent dramas. It has impacted us all more or less one way or another in the real world everyday life I know. We all can have different personal opinions on various things, but we should stick together and focus on the technical side of our technical project, it was possible many years ago, why not now? What happened to good old Meritocracy and Friendship? Any internally / externally induced drama / divisions should be prevented and chased away as this will only waken us all.. looks like this is the goal. For many people FreeBSD is the ultimate safe harbor that we must protect. United and focused we are strong. Please stay focused and strong folks! Much Love, Peace, Unity.. and Happy New Year folks!! :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
