And I'm sorry that you had to waste your time saying so yet again. It never
fails to amaze me when people try and make demands of developers, no matter
what project it is. "Foo needs bar, so why doesn't baz put it in?" always
makes me roll my eyes; I don't make demands, because I don't know how to do
it, so why the hell am I going to demand that others do it for me?

[the rest is OT (even more so than the above), disregard if you dislike
rambles]

It also gets me that people will pick something apart and then
do...nothing. How many useful software packages are there on OpenBSD that
are included that the developers don't really like, or even trust? The
recent comments about heimdal come to mind; not a single person even made
an attempt to organize the code savvy among us to get something together.
Again, this is a situation where my technical abilities end, so I'm not
going to attempt to manage a project of that scope and complexity, so I
remain mum (until now).

I think that the OpenBSD community needs to start listening to developers,
and pick up some of the things that fall by the wayside. God knows, that's
what I'm going to do when and if I achieve that level of coding skill.
