Changes in FreeBSD do not happen by polls and votes.  It seems
you think they should; and maybe they should.  But, we are working
with the way the _current contributing members_ of the project work,
and things are not done that way.

The people who do the work make the decisions.  That's the entirety
of it.

Where does it say that?

fwiw, I have done more for this project than you ever will have,
no matter how hard you get to work right now.

I think my first Problem Report was filed in 1999.  Perhaps it
was earlier, I am too bored to check.  I have served years on
various administration teams.

Earning you a permanent plonk.
