Can we please have this message thread enshrined in documentation as a
How-to guide for FreeBSD committers to resolve their disputes in a
public forum? Not only are you guys excellent developers but you also
know how to reconcile with the other party when viewpoints clash. This
type of public dispute resolution makes reading the CVS mailing list far
more pleasant. I'd like to thank the both of you for making life more
pleasant. Thanks!
