When you only gave references to two occasions, and no mention of
others.
I don't really know how much relevance the admin activities of the
ancient past have - the project has changed a lot since those days, and
the last two times the host key has publically changed there's been
enough discussion of why it needs to be announced that it should have
hopefully had an effect, modulo instances of human weakness when
people genuinely forget to put the old key back after an upgrade.

I didn't call you a liar. I said you were exaggerating the incidence
of inappropriate SSH key handling.

You are complaining to the wrong audience. Talk to [EMAIL PROTECTED],
not the FreeBSD user community.

you want to deal with multiple CCs. I can give you one if you like.
