I'd like to double this: It'd be exactly the same (or one of two) response(s) that one would get from the OpenBSD guys, at least the less social ones that don't have a clue to control themselves. The other one would be 'Shut the f*** up and code!'. After a really long odyssey I ended up (almost) where I started: Using NetBSD and CentOS (at least, what's OSS).
