And my e-mails have always discussed ways to get more resources.
Recently we even had a group of people trying to arrange for more
explicit corporate support for testing and release process. For some
reason unclear to me, not a single developer has stepped up and said
"Great. Here's how we could use you..." The entire concept of
getting *more resources* is the elephant in the room that everyone
seems intent to avoid considering.
Maybe, just maybe, there is some reason why FreeBSD doesn't want more
people helping. Or ... something. I haven't the vaguest clue. If
there is some reason why getting paid people to work on testing and
release cycle is a bad idea, would someone please stand up and explain?
