Alex was pretty clear that he did not like questions without content 
either. In the OpenBSD community it is expected that someone thinks 
first.

Bull! You have not read the web page that a bunch of people sent to the 
list.

You sure as hell whine like one.

That is not even *remotely* smart.

I understand English is not your first language but this sentence is 
not coherent.

Did I understand it correctly that you just said that you are asking 
for stuff that you know?

No you didn't.

Status is on the web. Even in your native tongue (based on your domain 
extension.) http://www.openbsd.com/de/smp.html

Why not? You wasted *my* time with this. I can tell you that your time 
is pretty much worthless to me however my time is extremely important 
and valuable to me. Ask around on these lists and you'll find that many 
people share that sentiment.

You might want to consider using FreeBSD or Linux. It seems that they 
are more compatible with your point of view.

Fact of the matter is that SMP is not on the dev team priority list. I 
would love to have it however I do not have the time to contribute 
therefore I forfeit all rights to whine. Nobody in the OpenBSD 
community owes me anything!

Apply that knowledge to your situation.
