Yes, I care about practical ramifications, not the mere presence. Much of the game's code reads like a deranged fantasy. Like I said, "fairly typical sample."

The mail you did read was responding to a rather dismissive attempt to read my mind. If the respondent wants to make room for a cordial disscussion, I'm fine with that; but my PRIMARY focus was eliciting a response from those who actually call the shots. If you read the rest of the thread, you know that Chris Ross made some fair suggestions, which I gladly noted. I am genuinely interested in the TOPIC of the discussion, please don't make it about ME. Greg, What were you hoping to accomplish by that remark? I _presume_ you can handle it far better than some kids who will explore whatever is handed to them. The major reason for dealing with this publicly is that I tried this before, using more oblique references, either noone believed me, or they were all for the things I was speaking against. Better, IMO, that OpenBSD be known for its pitfalls, than have evil suprises where they do the most damage.
