Nicely done David - I'm very impressed - as you know I mentioned before this on hackers that this sounded very kd85 like - and you confirmed my suspicions very effectively. Any time I see someone talking about "commit bits" I think of this and laugh - as this is someone who has never done a commit to OpenBSD. The lies in the message that was sent are pretty good to - Were we in the middle of a release cycle - were people cranky? Yes, absolutely - you know what - sane people have disagreements - all the time. however. Machines were not turned off. Everyone still had access to what they were doing Was the tree locked? yes - as problems have been found in test and need to be fixed. It's still locked - but we'll ship a good release for that. The priceless one is how the wim calls for a "vote" - yeah - that works real well for netbsd. and is also signing his messages "H" and "R" to decieve people as to the real identity and to foster suspicion within the community I find that particularly reprehensible - but not surprising. Nothing could surpirse me from this source anymore. I get the impression that this sort of behaviour is normal from Wim - it seems to make the same amount of sense as kd85's normal business practices - Sorry I can't go along with that. I pay my taxes, and I pay for my own house with my own money. I encourage Wim to fork his own project that will be run and funded fully, and openly, and accountable to all involved. I'm sure it will be a resounding success.
