Oh come on, guys. David is the same person who said that FreeBSD was
poorly documented.

I really hate throwing around the 'T' word, but I'm starting to
wonder.  I'll give him the benefit of the doubt a bit longer.

David, it's increasingly clear that FreeBSD is not going to fit your
needs. If, for some reason, you are interested in the FreeBSD kernel,
but binary packages, consider GNU/kFreeBSD.
