FreeBSD are at liberty to reject a non FreeBSD outsider who wrote this
especially if they were paid to write it, even more so if the paid
outsider hopes rules she/he wrote they'd like to see imposed on us.

I think legaly Foundation is not answerable to FreeBSD just to the
few who founded the foundation. Nothing wrong with FreeBSD rejecting
an unwanted gift as incompetent waste of money - if they want.

Whoever sprung this on FreeBSD community without warning should be admonished.
FreeBSD Foundation could ask for a refund from the incompetent who
wrote it, & Foundation in turn could refund those such as the person
who asked "Can I have a refund".
