Random FreeBSD user. I have uploaded small (read uncomplicated) binaries to our main archive site (Walnut Creek), sent mail to our mailing lists, and met a good response. Nowhere did I run into any sort of wall due to not being a core member. It may seem that the FreeBSD system would lend itself to a 'secret cabal', but my experiences have been only with an open, friendly group who maintain the source tree for us. I cannot remember anything useful/necissary being turned away. Why does this come up every month here? -- //James Robinson :: james@hermes.cybernetics.net :: PPP via Cybernetics \\ //FreeBSD/XFree86 :: The best things in life are Free! \\ //Frank Zappa : There's a big difference in bending down and kneeling over \\
