Re: FreBSD pkgbase MUST be ebandoned

Hi Guys.
Please stop this pathetic noise. Anyone can simply continue their own path, as Matt Dillon or Theo de Raadt did, and I respect them for their choices and their work. I maintain my small CoreBSD project in the same spirit, removing, adding, or fixing what I dislike in the main project. Let’s calm down and take a deep breath. Peace.
BR,
H4ckee.
